President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has sworn in two additional Federal Commissioners of the National Population Commission (NPC).
The two commissioners, Hon. Fasuwa Johnson from Ogun State and Hon. Amidu Raheem from Osun State, were sworn in just before the Federal Executive Council meeting commenced in the Council Chamber on Monday.
Their swearing-in came weeks after 17 colleagues took the oath of office in March.
The short ceremony, which entailed their citations being read and oath of allegiance being administered, was witnessed by the Vice President, Kassim Shettima, the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, cabinet ministers and other government officials.
Meanwhile the Federal Executive Council (FEC), before going into closed doors, observed a minute’s silence in honour of former Minister of Education Fabian Osuji and former Minister of Science and Technology, Ogbonnaya Onu.
