President Bola Tinubu has released the portfolios for the 45 confirmed ministerial nominees.
The list of the portfolios sent to journalists has former Rivers State governor Nyesom Wike as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Festus Keyamo as Minister of Aviation, Wale Edun as Minister of Finance, and Betta Edu as Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
The President in the list named a Minister of State for Gas Resources and Petroleum Resources, without naming a substantive Minister, apparently choosing to follow the tradition of some Presidents naming themselves as Minister of Petroleum Resources.
