Breaking: Northern Group Decides On Tinubu’s Chief Of Staff, Names Choice
By Admin
Hon James Faleke, a member of the House of Representatives, has been named the preferred choice for the position of Chief of Staff in the incoming administration of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The choice was named by the Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) on Sunday in a press statement in Lagos signed by Alhaji Yerima Shettima, the organisation’s National President.
The group also revealed its reasons for narrowing down to Faleke, describing him as a very loyal associate of the President-elect.
“Hon James Faleke is a very loyal Tinubu supporter and associate who has proven to be reliable as ambassador to the President-elect any day.
“Nigeria has had serious challenges caused by the communication gap between the President, ministers and even State governors. This is an oppprtunity for the President-elect to get someone with good skills of managing the relationship between him, officials of government and the rest of Nigerians.

“Faleke, being a highly-experienced lawmaker can build a very cordial relationship between the Executive and legislative arms of government in the new dispensation.
“Honorable Faleke represents the new generation of Nigerian political class, politically savvy and intellectually vibrant. We are in a new, ideas-driven world and Nigeria’s Presidency therefore, needs a Chief of Staff in tune with modern system of democratic governance,” the group said.
It noted its expectation that Tinubu is currently fully aware of the consequences of past mistakes in the choices of Chiefs of Staff and would “not allow a repeat of the inglorious past.
“In view of the forgoing, we urge the President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu to make sure he makes an informed choice of his Chief of Staff with loyal, proactive progressive and hale and hearty parliamentarian like Hon James Faleke.”
The group wished Nigerians a great Easter break.
Signed
Yerima Shettima
National President, AYCF.
