Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, has denied reports linking him to a lobbying effort to be appointed as Chief of Staff to President-Elect Bola Tinubu.

Gbajabiamila, who represents Surulere I Federal Constituency, was elected for the fifth time on February 25, 2023.

Despite being absent when his colleagues picked up their certificates of return at the International Conference Centre (ICC), Abuja, last week, Gbajabiamila denied that his absence was related to any interest in leaving the National Assembly.

Speaking to journalists, he said, “I don’t know anything about that chief of staff thing. All I heard was that I didn’t come here last week to pick up my certificate and for that reason, somebody conjectured that must be about something about Chief of Staff.”

He went on to explain that his absence was due to campaign efforts in Lagos, adding, “I was in Lagos and I could not leave Lagos because I was campaigning for my party. That’s number one. Again, it’ll interest you to know that I was not here four years ago to pick up my certificate because I couldn’t make it. I don’t think it is anything significant. I’ll pick up my certificate today or tomorrow.”
