President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has ordered the immediate implementation of the Presidential Committee on the Rationalisation and Restructuring of Federal Government Parastatals and Commissions headed by former Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Mr Stephen Osagiede Oronsaye.
Minister of Information and National Orientation Mr Mohammed Idris, who disclosed this while briefing State House correspondents at the end of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting in Abuja, said many agencies would be eliminated, combined or restructured in line with the recommendations of the committee.
“In a very bold move today, this administration, under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, consistent again with his courage to take very far-reaching decisions in the interest of Nigeria, has taken a decision to implement the so-called Oronsaye Report.
“Now, what that means that a number of agencies, commissions and some departments have actually been scrapped. Some have been modified, marked while others have been subsumed. Others, of course, have also been moved from some ministries to others where government feels they will operate a better,” he said.
