President Bola Tinubu is presiding over the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting at the Council Chamber of the State House in Abuja.

In attendance are Vice President Kashim Shettima, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume; Head of the Federal Civil Service, Didi Walson-Jack, the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, and the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu.

Also, in attendance are ministers from the various federal ministries and other members of the Council.

This meeting comes exactly one week after the last one in which FEC endorsed President Tinubu’s decision to issue an Executive Order on Local Content Policy.

The policy seeks to promote local manufacturing and production by prioritising goods and services from Nigerian companies.

It also aims to discourage importation of goods and services that are available in Nigeria.

At the commencement of this week’s meeting, President Tinubu first swore in two newly appointed commissioners of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

He also inaugurated two new members of the Board of the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB).
