Contrary to expectations, President Muhammadu Buhari has failed to preside over the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting today (Wednesday).
Although reports claimed his itinerary for the week shows he will be available for the meeting, Vice-president, Yemi Osinbajo is currently taking charge of the meeting.
The president has failed to convene FEC meetings for three consecutive weeks, fuelling speculation about his health.
However, he resumed at his desk on Tuesday and took briefs from Abubakar Malami, Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF), and Maikanti Baru, Group Managing Director of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
FEC, which is made up of the president, vice-president and all Ministers, is the highest decision making organ of the government.
