President Bola Tinubu has formally reduced the number of officials in his entourage whenever he is traveling outside the country and within. This could be a move to cut the cost of governance in the country.
A list, posted on some WhatsApp groups today, January 9, showed that while on foreign trip, the President can be accompanied by only 20 officials while the Vice President and First Lady would have five officials each accompanying them
For local trip (within the country), Tinubu reduces his (Presidential) entourage to 25 officials while the Vice President would go with 15 officials as First Lady would have 10 officials.
However, as at the time of publishing this message, no official confirmation had surfaced.
