The Presidency has announced the dismissal of Fegho John Umunubo, who until now served as Special Assistant to the President on Digital and Creative Economy in the Office of the Vice President.
The announcement was contained in a statement issued on Monday, September 8, by Abiodun Oladunjoye, Director of Information and Public Relations in the Presidency. However, no reason was given for Umunubo’s sack.
The statement read in part:
“Stakeholders and constituents of the digital and creative economy, at home and abroad, as well as the general public are hereby notified that Fegho John Umunubo, who hitherto had served as the Special Assistant to the President on Digital and Creative Economy (Office of the Vice President), has been disengaged with immediate effect. Kindly note that he no longer represents this administration in any capacity. Henceforth, anyone who interfaces with him in the name of President Bola Tinubu’s administration does so at his or her own risk. We urge all stakeholders and constituents of the digital and creative economy to be so guided.”
