AMILOADED MEDIA HUB NEWS UPDATE
The Director-General of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), Ahmed Rufai Abubakar, has tendered his resignation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He was first appointed in 2018 by former President Muhammadu Buhari, who extended his stay in office in December 2021.
In a brief chat with Abubakar, he said he simply visited the presidency to brief the President on security situation in the country and afterwards tendered his resignation.
“Its a routine thing, from time to time, I brief Mr President on situations in the country and today is no exception. After the briefing today, actually I tendered my resignation and Mr. President graciously approved and accepted the resignation.
“I thanked him for giving me the opportunity to serve Nigeria under his transformational leadership for a period, for an extended period of 15 months, which is very rare, by the way, to serve, to have the opportunity to serve two Presidents at a stretcher at a go,” he stated.
