President Bola Ahmed Tinubu officially swore in seven newly appointed ministers on Monday at the Council Chambers in Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The new 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, who takes the role of Minister of State for Foreign Affairs.
Additional appointments 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.
These appointments followed the Senate’s recent confirmation of the nominees selected by President Tinubu. The reshuffle comes shortly after the presidency announced the dismissal of five ministers from the cabinet.
