THE Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST), claimed that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has restored Adeyemi Adepoju, as the Postmaster General of the agency.
The announcement is coming a few days after presidential spokesperson, Ajuri Ngelale in a statement on Wednesday, announced the sack of Adepoju and his replacement with Tola Odeyemi based on the directive of the President.
NIPOST in a statement on Saturday released via its account on the X platform, claimed Adepoju has been reinstated to the position of the agency’s Postmaster General by the President due to his exceptional leadership and performance.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) has reinstated Rt. Honorable Adeyemi Sunday Adepoju as the Postmaster General of the Federation & CEO of the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST) due to his exceptional leadership and performance.
“Sunday Adepoju conveyed his appreciation to the President and other key supporters. He pledged to redouble his efforts to elevate NIPOST into a world-class digital postal service and align his vision with that of the Federal Ministry of Communication, Innovation & Digital Economy in contributing significantly to Nigeria’s socio-economic development.
“This reinstatement is a testament to Adepoju’s leadership skills and unwavering commitment to service. Nigerians can anticipate enhanced value and quality services from NIPOST, an agency dedicated to providing efficient, reliable, and effective postal services across the nation through a network of over 3000 post offices, offering a wide range of services including mailing, logistics, courier, and financial services,” the statement read.
Meanwhile, Adepoju and some persons wearing the NIPOST T-shirt believed to be staff of the agency were seen in a now viral video jubilating over the purported reinstatement.
