The statement reads, “Mr Sunday Adepoju conveys his appreciation to President Bola Tinubu and other key supporters.
“He pledged to redouble his efforts to elevate NIPOST into a world-class digital postal service and align his vision with that of the Federal Ministry of Communication, Innovation & Digital Economy in contributing significantly to Nigeria’s socio-economic development.
