President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will today administer the oath of office on seven new Ministers, who were last week screened and cleared by the Senate.
Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, disclosed this on his X handle on Sunday.
The newly appointed ministers include Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda as Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction; Muhammadu Maigari Dingyadi as Minister of Labour and Employment; and Bianca Odinaka Odumegwu-Ojukwu as Minister of State for Foreign Affairs.
Other appointees are Dr. Jumoke Oduwole as Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment (Trade and Investment); Idi Mukhtar Maiha as Minister of Livestock Development; Yusuf Abdullahi Ata as Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development; and Dr. Suwaiba Said Ahmad as Minister of State for Education.
President Tinubu’s cabinet reshuffle comes after months of growing calls from Nigerians on him to drop Ministers whose performance had been underwhelming.
These new appointments are therefore, expected to bring fresh perspectives and expertise to their respective Ministries.
