The Director General of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), Ahmed Rufai Abubakar, has tendered his resignation to President Bola Tinubu.
Shortly after meeting with the President, Abubakar revealed this to State House reporters on Saturday. He claimed to have discussed it with Tinubu, who agreed with him.
Abubakar claimed that the purpose of his visit to Tinubu at the Presidential Villa was to "brief Mr. President on issues and today is no exception."
"I tendered my resignation following the briefing, and Mr. President graciously approved and accepted the resignation."
"For giving me the opportunity to serve Nigeria under his transformational leadership for an extended period of 15 months - which is very rare - to have the opportunity to serve two presidents at a stretch," he added he also took use of the occasion to thank Tinubu.
