President Bola Tinubu has officially sworn in Taiwo Oyedele as the new Minister of State for Finance, a key position within the federal government responsible for assisting in managing Nigeria’s fiscal policies and economic planning.
The brief ceremony took place on Monday at the State House, Abuja, with top government officials present to witness the appointment. Details of Oyedele’s portfolio and immediate priorities were not disclosed at the event.
The swearing-in follows Oyedele’s confirmation by the National Assembly earlier this month and marks a significant step in strengthening the administration’s finance team amid ongoing economic reforms.
President Tinubu commended Oyedele for his experience and expertise in public finance, emphasizing the importance of efficient fiscal management and policy implementation in supporting national economic growth and stability.
While the ceremony was brief, the appointment signals the administration’s continued focus on reinforcing governance in the financial sector and ensuring effective oversight of revenue, taxation, and public expenditure across the country.
