President Bola Tinubu has assigned portfolios to his appointees recently confirmed by the Nigerian Senate as his ministers.
This was made public in a statement released Wednesday evening, announcing former Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
