The Presidency on Saturday night said former Benue State Governor, George Akume, remained the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF.

There have been reports that Akume stepped down as SGF to become the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

However, in a statement, presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga “there has been no change in the status” of Akume.

“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, currently in Saint Lucia, has not made any new appointments.

“The information circulating about Akume’s replacement is untrue,” he said.
