President Tinubu directed the Director-General to hand over to the most senior officer in the Bureau, pending the appointment of a new Director-General.

He thanked Mr. Ahmadu for his services and wished him success in his future endeavours.

Recall that Mr. Ahmadu was appointed in 2016 by the immediate past President Muhammadu Buhari to head the BPP.
