National Assembly Workers Demand Adherence to Federal Character Rule After Tinubu's Promotion U-Turn

National Assembly staff, through PASAN, are calling for strict compliance with federal character principles in senior appointments after Bola Tinubu reversed the promotion of his aide-de-camp. This move is seen as a signal that due process was not followed.

The staff expressed concerns over skewed appointments and urged the National Assembly Service Commission to correct the irregularities to restore confidence in the appointment process. The workers warned that continued disregard for constitutional provisions could lead to industrial tensions within the National Assembly workforce.
