“The President expects the new Director-General to bring his vast experience and competence to bear in this role to strengthen the agency as the national resource centre for capacity building and sustenance of reforms through the promotion of a competitive private sector-driven economy, ensuring social accountability and efficient deployment of public resources, as well as advancing effective corporate governance and fiduciary discipline in the public and private sectors,” the statement said.
Meanwhile, Tinubu had earlier directed the resignation of Mamman Ahmadu from office as the Director-General/Chief Executive Officer of the Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP).
According to a statement, this is part of a larger reorganization effort in the public procurement system to reposition the agency for greater efficiency and transparency.
The Director-General was directed to hand over to the most senior officer in the Bureau, pending the appointment of a new Director-General.
