Indications emerged on Tuesday that some permanent secretaries have been relieved of their appointments by President Muhammadu Buhari.
About 17 permanent secretaries, our correspondent gathered, will be affected in the exercise which is geared toward strengthening the Federal Civil Service.
Some of the permanent secretaries held a closed-door meeting with President Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Tuesday.
A source, who does not want his name in prints, said the President informed the permanent secretaries that are leaving the service during the meeting.
The source said those affected included those who were senior to the Acting Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs. Winifred Ekanem Oyo-Ita.
