From Victor Osula, Abuja

 

 

President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday night unveiled the list of ministers and their assigned portfolios, except that of the Minister of Petroleum, who presumably would be the president himself.

But THISAGENEWS could not independently verify this information beyond a presidency source’s information that all the nominees cleared by the Senate have been assigned their portfolios. The president, according to the view, would be able to keep abreast of ongoing restructuring in the downstream sector and issues tied with subsidy removal.

The names of some of the ministers and their portfolios are as follows with the full list below:

Minister of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy, Bosun Tuani,

Minister of State, Environment and Ecological Management, Ishak Salaco
