Fegho John Umunubo has spoken out after his removal as Special Assistant on Digital and Creative Economy to President Bola Tinubu in the Office of the Vice President.
The Presidency announced his disengagement on Monday in a statement signed by Abiodun Oladunjoye, Director of Information and Public Relations at the State House. The decision, effective immediately, also warned stakeholders and the public not to engage with Umunubo in any official capacity.
“Stakeholders and constituents of the digital and creative economy, at home and abroad, as well as the general public are hereby notified that Fegho John Umunubo, who hitherto served as Special Assistant to the President on Digital and Creative Economy (Office of the Vice President), has been disengaged with immediate effect,” the statement read.
While no reason was given for his removal, the announcement came just days after Umunubo had publicly reaffirmed his loyalty to Vice President Kashim Shettima and the Tinubu administration, calling on Nigerians to support the Renewed Hope Agenda.
Reacting via Instagram, Umunubo shared a screenshot of the official statement with the caption: “It has been my honor to serve this country and the Creative Industry. Now I am free to fly.”
