Okumagba Lauds Tinubu Over ‘Inclusive’ Ministerial List

A former Commissioner of Finance in Delta State, Olorogun Bernard Okumagba, has congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for what he called an inclusive and broad-based representation of the nation’s diversity reflected in his initial list of 28-member Ministerial list, which was read on the floor of the Senate on Thursday.

In a press statement, Olorogun Okumagba, a prominent leader of APC in Delta State, reckoned that President Tinubu, who has an established reputation as a bridge builder and true progressive, has brought these remarkable skills and attributes to bear by crossing the aisle in constituting his cabinet thereby renewing the hopes of Nigerians for a more prosperous nation where no one will be left behind.

Olorogun Okumagba, therefore, extended his hearty congratulations to the Minister-nominees for the confidence placed in them by President Tinubu.

He also expressed to the Ministerial nominees his sincere wishes for success in leading the various ministries that will be assigned to them after the Senate confirmation of their nominations, adding that he was convinced that they will give a strong impetus to the “Nigerian Ideal” agenda of President Tinubu’s commitment to “peace and prosperity of our country through an inclusive national reconciliation process; remarkable focus on confronting insecurity through a reform of the sector; growing the economy; and tackling multi-dimensional poverty, which would boost Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), and thereby create a robust middle class that will drive our country’s economic rebound.”

Olorogun Okumagba assured the Ministerial nominees to count on the support of well-meaning Nigerians as they stay focused in supporting President Tinubu to deliver on his commitment to make Nigeria “a more perfect nation and democracy such that the Nigerian ideal becomes and forever remains the Nigerian reality.”
