President Bola Tinubu has approved the immediate dissolution of the Presidential Implementation Committee on the Alienation of Federal Government Properties, ending the activities of the committee established in 2000 under former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

The President also transferred all the committee's responsibilities to the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi.

According to the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the dissolution takes effect from November 5, 2025, while the committee's former Secretary, B. S. Dutsin-Ma, has been directed to stop acting on behalf of the committee and the Federal Government on all related matters.

Bayo Onanuga said the decision followed a review which found that the committee had operated beyond its original mandate, leading to multiple court cases across the country. He noted that the continued existence of the committee was no longer considered necessary in view of the findings.
