Laolu Akande, Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, says his principal will meet with a cross-section of public and civil servants to drive the reforms intended in the executive orders signed on Thursday.
In a statement on Sunday, Akande said Osinbajo wants to hear directly from the civil servants since they would be responsible for the implementation of the orders.
He explained that the effective implementation of the orders was critical for the overall prosperity of the country.
The spokesman said the interactive forum would be broadcast live by a number of TV stations.
