The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator George Akume, gave the warning in a statement issued on Friday in Abuja by his media adviser, Yomi Odunuga.
Akume said the clarification became necessary following an error observed in the naming and appellation of the president in a publication by a national daily on Wednesday, May 7, 2026.
According to him, the correct and official appellation of the president is: “His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
He urged the public and media organisations to verify official titles before publication to avoid what he described as avoidable and embarrassing errors in print and online reports.
Akume added that such verifications could be made through the office’s official communication channels on Facebook, Instagram and X, as well as via email.
