TINUBU TO SWEAR IN NEW MINISTERS MONDAY

Barring any last-minute change, President Bola Tinubu will on Monday swear in seven new ministers.

The swearing-in will take place at the Council Chamber of the State House, Abuja.

Disclosing this via X, Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, wrote: “President Bola Tinubu will swear in the new seven ministers tomorrow Monday.

“The ministers are Dr Nentawe Yilwatda – Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction; Muhammadu Dingyadi – Minister of Labour and Employment; Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu – Minister of State Foreign Affairs.

“Others are Dr Jumoke Oduwole – Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment (Trade and Investment), Idi Maiha – Minister of Livestock Development; Yusuf Ata – Minister of State, Housing and Urban Development; and Dr Suwaiba Ahmad – Minister of State Education.

“The Senate cleared the ministers last week.”

On October 23, Tinubu had reassigned 10 ministers to new ministerial portfolios, discharged five others and nominated seven new ministers.

On October 31, 2024, the Senate confirmed all seven nominees after screening each.

    US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION: TRUMP AHEAD AS RESULTS TRICKLE IN

    US PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION: TRUMP AHEAD AS RESULTS TRICKLE IN Donald Trump is now 24 electoral college votes away from winning the United States presidential election. The Republican Party candidate has now amassed 246 electoral college votes, with Vice President Kamala Harris of the Democratic Party polling 210 electoral college votes at the time of reporting. There are 538 votes in the electoral college and it takes 270 — a majority — to win the presidency. Trump is now projected to win the battleground state of North Carolina and the swing state of Georgia, leaving Harris with a mountain to climb. There is currently no realistic pathway to a Harris victory. A “hush” has descended on the Harris campaign headquarters, with various outlets reporting that the campaign would no longer be talking to the press until it is done and dusted. The US presidential election has been a keenly contested one and was considered “neck-and-neck” and “too close to call” even before the first mail-in ballots were cast. Immigration, border security and inflation were Trump’s strongest campaign points, while Harris campaigned on reproductive rights for women and building “an opportunity economy”. Harris entered the race in July after US President Joe Biden’s shaky debate performance in June. Barack Obama, a former US president, and a slew of celebrities had acted as Harris surrogates on the campaign trail. Trump has promised to “tighten the border” and “root out illegal immigrants” if re-elected. The Republican Party candidate has repeatedly described the Democratic Party as “weak”. The Republican Party has also taken control of the senate.
