BREAKING: Tinubu Makes Fresh Set Of Appointments (FULL LIST)

President Bola Tinubu has appointed Badamasi Lawal as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the National Social Investment Programme Agency (NSIPA).

This follows the suspension of the former NSIPA head, Halima Shehu, on January 2 due to alleged financial misconduct. Dr. Akindele Egbuwalo, who had been serving as the Acting CEO following her suspension, will now step down as Lawal takes over the position.

The President’s decision to appoint a permanent CEO for the agency, along with leaders for other humanitarian agencies, was announced in a statement on Tuesday by presidential spokesman Ajuri Ngelale.
