The word "boycott" as used here sounds extreme.

Do you see your life? Anyway training taught me to be polite in correcting others. Federal Executive Council meeting which is held every Wednesday is different from Council of State meeting. Please take note.

Oponu, when jonah-daft was in charge, only executive council (FEC) comprising ministers meets on wednesday. Council of state is different and happens occasionally. Get sense. Check this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_State_(Nigeria) and tell me these people meet every week. Ode.
