Why four Permanent Secretaries were suddenly moved by Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has approved the deployment of four Federal Permanent Secretaries as part of efforts to strengthen governance and improve public service delivery across key sectors.

The development was disclosed in a statement issued in Abuja on Monday by Mrs Eno Olotu, Director of Information and Public Relations in the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation.

Olotu said the redeployment aligns with the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda, aimed at enhancing efficiency, deepening inter-ministerial collaboration and ensuring effective implementation of government policies.

She noted that the affected permanent secretaries emerged through a competitive selection process and are expected to bring their experience and expertise to bear in their new assignments.

According to the statement, Mrs Bekearedebo Warrens has been posted to the Political and Economic Affairs Office in the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, while Dr Kamil Shoretire has been deployed to the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment.

Also redeployed are Mrs Nkiruka Jones-Nebo, who will serve in the Career Management Office under the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, and Mr Sani Aminu, assigned to the Special Services Office in the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.

The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Didi Walson-Jack, congratulated the officials and urged them to demonstrate professionalism, accountability and result-driven leadership in their new roles.

She emphasised that the redeployment is designed to optimise performance and drive sustainable development in line with the Federal Government’s priorities.

The latest move underscores ongoing efforts by the Tinubu administration to reposition the civil service as a critical driver of policy execution and national development.
