President Muhammadu Buhari has appointed Vice President Yemi Osinbajo to chair the 2nd Presidential Business Forum slated for next week in Abuja.
President Buhari disclosed that his absence will, however, not affect the ongoing work on the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan.
This, Buhari said on Thursday, as he left for the United Kingdom to begin an 18-day annual leave.
The President, who noted that he had met with his service chiefs before departing, assured Nigerians that his administration will continue deliver on its promise to the people and “confront all security challenges head-on”.
And work continues on our Econ Recovery & Growth Plan. Also, VP @ProfOsinbajo will be chairing the 2nd Presidential Business Forum,next week
