President Bola Tinubu has directed the Director-General/Chief Executive Officer of the Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP), Mr. Mamman Ahmadu, to resign from office.
A statement issued on Saturday by the presidential spokesperson, Ajuri Ngelale, said this is part of a larger reorganisation effort in the public procurement system to reposition the agency for greater efficiency and transparency.
“The Director-General is to hand over to the most senior officer in the Bureau, pending the appointment of a new Director-General.
“The President thanks Mr. Ahmadu for his services and wishes him success in his future endeavours,” the statement added.
