Tinubu reverses Adekanmbi’s appointment as HYREP Coordinator, reinstates Zabbey

President Bola Tinubu has reinstated Professor Nenibarini Zabbey as the Project Coordinator of the Hydrocarbon Pollution Remediation Project.

The President’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, announced Zabbey’s reinstatement in a statement on Monday titled ‘President Tinubu reinstates professor Nenibarini Zabbey, as HYREP coordinator.’

Monday’s development comes two days after Tinubu approved the appointment of Dr Olufemi Adekanmbi, a former Commissioner for Special Duties, Culture and Tourism in Ondo State, as the new Project Coordinator for the Hydrocarbon Pollution Remediation Project.

Explaining the reason for the reversal, the Presidency said Tinubu “Reached the decision following a performance review of the HYPREP Project Coordinator and concluded that the Project Coordinator is fit to discharge his functions by the regulations guiding the execution of the Hydrocarbon Pollution Remediation Project.”
