Ban International Travel for FG Cabinet – Ben Bruce Urges Tinubu

Founder of Silverbird Group, Ben Murray Bruce has urged President Bola Tinubu to issue an executive order to ban all international travel for all federal government cabinet.

Speaking on Monday while President Tinubu set sail to Nigeria after a business meeting with officials of Saudi Arabia in Doha, Qatar, the former Senator representing Bayelsa East Senatorial District advised that such an order would boost the Nigerian economy.

“President Bola Tinubu should issue an executive order to halt all international travel for one year for everyone in the federal government unless he grants special approval for matters critical to the national interest.”

Mr Bruce warned that the executive order does not “apply to External Affairs, Finance, and National Security” and advised that the Zoom app should be used for important meetings until the stability of the economy.

“When international travel is authorized, officials must fly with Nigerian airlines unless there’s no available service on that route. This International travel ban should apply to the entire Federal Cabinet, all heads of agencies, and all civil servants. All international meetings should be conducted over Zoom.”
