He wrote:
“My presidential personnel office is actively in the process of identifying and removing over a thousand presidential appointees from the previous administration, who are not aligned with our vision to Make America Great Again.”
Henzodaily.ng reports that the step will likely reignite concerns that the president aims to replace Biden appointees with individuals faithful to his agenda.
If Trump follows through on his campaign promises to downsize the civil service and enhance efficiency, it could result in the closure of entire departments.
