President Bola Tinubu has relieved Fegho John Umunubo of his position as Special Assistant on Digital and Creative Economy in the Office of the Vice President.

The announcement was made in a statement on Monday by the Director of Information and Public Relations at the State House, Abiodun Oladunjoye, who said the disengagement takes effect immediately.

“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 had served as the Special Assistant to the President on Digital and Creative Economy (Office of the Vice President), has been disengaged with immediate effect,” the statement read.

Oladunjoye stressed that Umunubo no longer represents the Tinubu administration in any capacity, warning that anyone dealing with him on behalf of the government does so at their own risk.

“We urge all stakeholders and constituents of the digital and creative economy to be so guided,” the statement added.

No reason was given for his removal.
