President Bola Tinubu on Tuesday held a closed-door meeting with the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, the Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Senator Atiku Bagudu, and the Minister of State for Petroleum (Gas), Ekperikpe Ekpo.

Also at the meeting held at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, were the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Yemi Cardoso and the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Zacch Adedeji.

Although the agenda of the meeting was not made public, Daily Sun learnt that it was a routine meeting in which holders of sensitive positions brief the president on activities in their offices.

Previous meetings saw the CBN governor briefing the president on issues concerning the country’s fiscal and monetary policies.

The FIRS boss is also expected to inform President Tinubu about the steps taken to ensure the successful implementation of the four tax bills recently signed into law.
