Tinubu Denies Reducing His Salary By 50%, Scrapping First Lady’s Office

The presidency has disowned a statement circulating on social media purporting President Bola Tinubu as announcing a 50% reduction in his salary and scrapping the First Lady’s office, among other measures.

Bayo Onanuga, the Senior Special Adviser on Media and Strategy to President Tinubu, issued a statement on Saturday dismissing the alleged presidential broadcast as “totally false” and a product of “mischief makers.”
