President Bola Ahmed Tinubu presided over a meeting of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) at the State House on Wednesday.
Wednesday’s FEC meeting is the second for the week after the one earlier held on Monday.
On Monday, the council approved several memos, including the one for the completion of the Oyo-Ogbomoso road project and the license approval for new private universities in the country.
The agenda of today’s meeting is yet to be revealed but the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, at the end of the last meeting, had indicated that another meeting of the council was scheduled for today.
At the commencement of today’s meeting, the council honoured two former members who passed on recently with a minute of silence.
Those honoured were the first female Minister, Adenike Oyagbola, who served under late Shehu Shagari’s administration and late Chief Edwin Clark, who was a Federal Commissioner for Education and later Information.
The meeting was still in progress at the time of filing this report.
