On Monday, Staff of the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST) shut down the head office of the service in Abuja, protesting the appointment of Tola Odeyemi as Chief Executive Officer/Postmaster-General.
It was gathered that the protesters denied the newly appointed NIPOST CEO entry to the building as her appointment was against their wish.
A Presidential spokemsn, Ajuri Ngelale, announced last week that President Bola Tinubu changed the leadership of communication agencies, including NIPOST.
Howbeit, moments after the news of Odeyemi’s appointment was shared, reports went round that Adeyemi Adepoju, the sacked Postmaster-General, had been reinstated.
A viral video showed Adepoju addressing some workers who claimed Tinubu had reappointed him.
Adepoju in a statement by NIPOST on Friday, alleged that President Bola Ahmed reappointed him as Postmaster General of the Federation and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Postal Service, NIPOST.
The statement read; “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has returned Rt. Honourable Adeyemi Sunday Adepoju as the Postmaster General of the Federation and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST), citing Adepoju’s sterling leadership and excellent performance during his stay in office as the reason for his reinstatement”.
