Human rights lawyer Femi Falana (SAN) has commended President Bola Tinubu for reducing his travel entourage to 60 percent but suggested he can still drop it further to 40 percent.

On Tuesday, the presidency announced that President Tinubu has directed a major slash in travel delegations for all federal government official trips within and outside the country.

Falana, while speaking on a monitored programme, said this is commendable but insisted that there are other areas where resources could be saved.

However, the Senior Advocate added that the government can further reduce the number from 60 to 40 percent in reflection of the bad state of the economy.

The senior lawyer also stated that this policy must not be limited to the president or the presidency.
