President Tinubu has directed that attendance at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) be restricted to individuals with official business there.
The Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, announced this during a one-day retreat organised by the State House management for the leaders of government agencies under its oversight.
He said: “I just discussed with the President this afternoon. In the next few weeks, we are going to see a test of this policy during UNGA in New York.
“During recent protests, there were talks about a reduction in the cost of governance. Everyone is waiting to see if Nigeria, as in the past, will send the ‘largest delegation’ to UNGA.
“From experience, we know that some individuals use the opportunity of such international meetings to go about their personal businesses.
“I have received a directive from Mr. President that this time, we will be strict. If you have no business at the UN General Assembly, do not step foot in America, and this is a directive from Mr. President.”
