Buhari chairs valedictory session of FEC meeting

The Federal Executive Council (FEC) has gathered in the Council Chamber of the Presidential Villa in Abuja to begin its valedictory session, which will be presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Professor Yemi Osinbajo, Vice President, and all 44 ministers and ministers of state are present as the President begins by swearing in seven federal commissioners of the Revenue Mobilisation Fiscal and Allocation Commission (RMFAC).

The FEC, which has held no fewer than 15 sessions in 2023 alone, is expected to adopt the conclusions of the last three of its meetings, comprising two extraordinary meetings and one regular meeting.

Buhari is also expected to officially dissolve the cabinet, after which an opportunity will be given for speeches and encomiums by each of the ministers.

After the official cabinet dissolution, the ministers are expected to hand over to the permanent secretaries in their respective ministries.
