President Bola Tinubu has approved a two-year tenure extension for the Surveyor-General of the Federation, Mr. AbuduGaniyu Adebomehin.
The extension will take effect from January 5, 2026, allowing Adebomehin to serve until January 2028.
The move is intended to consolidate ongoing reforms in Nigeria’s national land administration and geospatial data systems, according to a statement released on Wednesday by Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.

Onanuga noted that the extension follows the recent transfer of the Office of the Surveyor-General of the Federation to the Presidency.
This transfer places national surveying operations and geospatial intelligence directly under the executive arm of government.
The President expects Mr Adebomehin to consolidate the reforms within the next two years, focusing on areas of “strategic national importance.”
These include national land management and administration, highways and abutting land infrastructure coordination, reclamation and erosion control programmes, and other related matters.
Mr. Adebomehin was initially appointed to the position by the late President Muhammadu Buhari, effective January 5, 2022.
