Femi Gbajabiamila, Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu,on Sunday, denied viral social media and conventional newspaper’ reports accusing his person of allegedly selling appointment slots to the highest bidders, thereby denying sometimes, the president’s preferred nominees from landing such positions.
Gbajabiamila, in a bid to clear his name from any misgivings, took to his X page and diplomatically addressed the issue by saying that no amount of propaganda can derail the presidential team’s focus of delivering President Tinubu’s renewed hope agenda for the country.
Reacting to the accusations, the former speaker of the House of Representatives discreetly declared: “Last Thursday, the Supreme Court (SC) gave the renewed hope agenda a stable platform to deliver good governance to Nigerians”
“Our Agenda is not driven by pecuniary politics, and no amount of propaganda can derail our focus.
“We have a critical assignment to deliver, and our objectives will not be interrupted by baseless accusations from unverifiable quarters.
“Nigerians can be rest assured [sic] that the president and his strong team will deliver without distraction.”

The said stories of Mr Femi Gbajabiamila’s involvement in selling slots to highest bidders have been the subject of discussion in the media space which many analysts say is against the principle of President Bola Tinubu’s agenda.
According to reports by some media platforms, not Theliberationnews, this had purportedly sparked widespread indignation among members of the public.
Theliberationnews can reveal that Mr. Gbajabiamila has been variously accused, especially on the social media, and though without verifiable evidence so far, of having purportedly changed some names of individuals allegedly approved by the President for appointments with his own picks.
