President Bola Tinubu has implemented a new cost-cutting measure limiting Federal Ministers, Ministers of State, and Heads of Agencies to a maximum of three vehicles in their official convoys.
This directive, outlined in a statement personally signed by the president, aims to streamline government operations and reduce expenditures associated with official travel.
Additionally, the President has set a cap of five security personnel for the officials, comprised of four police officers and one officer from the Department of State Services (DSS).
“He similarly reduced the Vice President’s entourage to five officials on foreign trips and 15 for local trips.
“In the directive issued today, President Tinubu also ordered all ministers, ministers of state, and heads of agencies to have at most five security personnel attached to them.
“The security team will comprise four police officers and one Department of State Services (DSS) officer. No additional security personnel will be assigned, he ordered.
“President Tinubu instructed the National Security Adviser to engage with the Military, Paramilitary and Security Agencies to determine a suitable reduction in their vehicle and security personnel deployment.
“All affected officials are expected to comply with these new measures immediately, underscoring the urgency and seriousness of these changes,” the statement read.
This announcement follows earlier measures by President Tinubu to cut government spending, which included reducing the size of his entourage for foreign trips from 50 to 20 officials and for local trips to 25 officials.
