President Bola Tinubu has restricted ministers, ministers of state, and heads of agencies of the federal government to three vehicles in their official convoys.

No additional vehicles will be assigned to them for movement.

According to a statement by presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga, the cost-cutting measure was announced Thursday in a statement signed by the president.

The president action comes a day after he carried a cabinet shakeup  in which he sacked five ministers, reassigned 10 others and effected changes to the structure of his cabinet.

It also signals the president’s  willingness to heed the calls by Nigerians to further cut down.on wasteful expenditure in the light the country’s economic challenges.

In January this year, President Tinubu took  a step to reduce government expenditure by reducing his entourage on foreign trips from 50 to 20 officials and on local trips to 25 officials.

He similarly reduced the vice president’s entourage to five officials on foreign trips and 15 for local trips.

In the directive issued Thursday,  President Tinubu also ordered all ministers, ministers of state, and heads of agencies to have at most five security personnel attached to them.

The security team will comprise four police officers and one Department of State Services (DSS) officer.

No additional security personnel will be assigned, he ordered.

The president also instructed the national security adviser to engage with the military, paramilitary and security agencies to determine a suitable reduction in their vehicle and security personnel deployment.

The statement urged all the affected officials to comply with these new measures immediately, underscoring the urgency and seriousness of these changes.
