President Tinubu Implements Major Reshuffling: 24 Federal Permanent Secretaries Redeployed
In a significant move aimed at revitalizing government activities, President Bola Tinubu has given approval for the posting of 24 federal permanent secretaries across various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs).
Among the reshuffled permanent secretaries are individuals appointed last year, some of whom were yet to be assigned new portfolios.
In this latest restructuring, Dr. Evelyn Ngige has been redeployed from the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade, and Investment to oversee two crucial portfolios—the newly created Federal Ministry of Arts and Culture and Creative Economy, and the Federal Ministry of Tourism.
Dr. Magdalene Ajani, formerly with the Transportation Ministry, has been reassigned to the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), where she will replace the retiring Mr. Olusade Adesola. Mr. Oloruntola Olufemi will take over Ajani’s previous role after being transferred from the Service Policies and Strategies Office (SPSO) OHCSF.
