This significant event comes after the Senate approved their appointments just last week.
Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda will take on the role of Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction.
He is expected to address critical issues surrounding social welfare and support systems, focusing on reducing poverty across the nation.
Muhammadu Maigari Dingyadi will serve as Minister of Labour and Employment.
His responsibilities will include tackling unemployment and creating initiatives to enhance job opportunities for citizens, particularly the youth.
Bianca Odinaka Odumegwu-Ojukwu has been appointed as Minister of State for Foreign Affairs.
Her position will be crucial in strengthening Nigeria’s diplomatic relationships and promoting the country’s interests on the international stage.
Known for her advocacy and public service, she aims to enhance Nigeria’s image abroad.
Dr Jumoke Oduwole will step into the role of Minister of Industry, Trade, and Investment.
Her experience in both the public and private sectors will be invaluable as she seeks to stimulate economic growth through strategic trade policies and investment opportunities.
Idi Mukhtar Maiha will take charge as Minister of Livestock Development.
This ministry plays a vital role in ensuring the welfare of livestock and enhancing the agricultural sector, which is a key part of Nigeria’s economy.
Yusuf Abdullahi Ata has been appointed Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development.
His focus will likely be on addressing housing shortages and improving urban planning to create sustainable living environments for Nigerians.
Finally, Dr. Suwaiba Said Ahmad will serve as Minister of State for Education.
Her work will be essential in reforming the educational sector, promoting access to quality education, and addressing challenges in schools across the country.
Spiritual leader Primate Elijah Ayodele warns the APC against being too confident ahead of the 2027 election.
He shared “Overconfidence will kill APC; they will be too overconfident, and that will be the party’s weakness in the election. They will turn Tinubu to a demi-god, but it will make them lose the election. They believe money can do everything, but it will fail in the 2027 election,” Ayodele said.
Ayodele has repeatedly warned the APC not to assume that its current political strength will automatically translate into victory in 2027.
Politician Atiku Abubakar claims that President Bola Tinubu is 90 and says he can prove it.
He shared in a recent interview that he has evidence and can prove it, while also stating that he can serve Nigeria better and sharing how he has the qualities to be Nigeria’s leader.
“You have a President who is 90 years old now and sick and I am healthy and strong. So why won’t I make myself available to serve my country?”
“You went and voted for someone who is 80, I mean 90 years old. How old is President Bola, 90?”
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose speaks on the upcoming election and shares that it has basically started now with who the people support.
While backing Peter Obi, he shared “2027 election campaign has officially kicked off. I’m happy because it’s time to take our country back. Recall that President Tinubu once told us that if he doesn’t provide electricity, we should not vote for him. APC is a failed government. Let’s start a door-to-door campaign for Mr Peter Obi. The (OK) ticket is all we want.”
He urged Nigerians to start showing their support and vote.
