President Muhammadu Bugari |
President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the dissolution
of the governing boards of a number of federal agencies and institutions with
immediate effect, his spokesman said on Thursday.
It was not immediately
clear which bodies were affected by the move.
Until the boards are
reconstituted, chief executives of the affected bodies will "refer all
matters requiring the attention of their boards to the president" through senior
civil servants, said Buhari's spokesman Femi Adesina.
Buhari, who is yet to
appoint ministers, was sworn in as president of Africa's most populous country
on May 29 after being elected on an anti-corruption ticket.
Last month the president
dissolved the board of the state-owned oil company. On Monday he replaced his
defence chiefs as part of an attempt to step up the campaign against Boko
Haram.
