In a statement, yesterday, Bankole-Hammed cautioned support groups that worked for Tinubu during the electioneering period to desist from advocating a Chief of Staff for the President-elect.
He said: “We at Team Prosper note with care the unguarded statements and utterances attributed to some people who identify with their various individual groups advocating an individual politician as Chief of Staff to the President-elect, Senator Bola Tinubu.
“The mandate is that of the President and not for any ‘support group’ or groups. Team Prosper advises everyone concerned not to be used by any position-seeking person or individuals.
“The office of the Chief of Staff is a sensitive one, which shouldn’t be beholden to a group of people as if it’s a ‘rub my back I rub yours’ kind of office.”
“Team Prosper, a grassroots organisation for a prosperous Asiwaju administration, seeks to support the President-elect in every legally-conceivable way to achieve his vision.
“The office of CoS is an engine room not to be toyed with. We wish the President-elect the very best.”
