The federal government has extended the federal executive
council (FEC) meeting to Tuesday.

Mohammed Idris, minister of information and culture,
announced the extension of the FEC meeting on Monday while speaking with State
House correspondents.

The FEC meeting was held on Monday for the first time since
March.

Idris said the FEC meeting will continue on Tuesday at 12pm.

“The council meeting
will continue tomorrow, therefore, there will be no press briefing today,” the
minister said.

“A lot of far-reaching decisions are being taken and the
conclusions will be made available to you tomorrow. FEC will continue at 12
noon tomorrow.”

During the FEC meeting, President Bola Tinubu swore in two
additional commissioners of the National Population Commission (NPC).

The two commissioners are Fasuwa Johnson from Ogun state,
and Amidu Raheem from Osun state.

Earlier, the cabinet observed a minute’s silence in honour
of the late Fabian Osuji, a former minister of education; and Ogbonnaya Onu, a
former minister of science and technology.
