The Federal Government on Monday extended the federal executive council (FEC) meeting to Tuesday.
The Minister of Information and Culture, Mohammed Idris, announced the extension of the FEC meeting while speaking with State House correspondents.
The FEC meeting was held on Monday for the first time since March.
Idris said the FEC meeting would continue on Tuesday at 12pm.
”The council meeting will continue tomorrow, therefore, there will be no press briefing today.
“A lot of far-reaching decisions are being taken and the conclusions will be made available to you tomorrow. FEC will continue at 12 noon tomorrow,” said.
During the FEC meeting, President Bola Tinubu swore in two additional commissioners of the National Population Commission (NPC).
