President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the appointment of Mr Adepoju Sunday as the new Postmaster-General/Chief Executive Officer (PMG) of the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST).

This followed the recommendations of the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Mr Isa Pantami.

The new Postmaster-General of NIPOST was appointed for an initial term of five years, according to a statement issued by Mrs Uwa Suleiman, spokesperson for the Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy.

Mr Sunday is a professional accountant and a former member of the House of Representatives. He was in the parliament between 2011 and 2019, representing Ibarapa East/Ido Federal Constituency.

NIPOST is an agency under the supervision of the Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy. The appointment of Mr Sunday as the new PMG of NIPOST is with immediate effect.

Recall that the former occupier of the seat, Mr Ismail Adewusi, who was appointed in 2019, was suspended. Mr Bulus Yakubu was chosen in an acting capacity before the appointment of Mr Sunday as the substantive PG of the nation’s postal service.

The latest development means Mr Yakubu will return to his role as the Secretary to NIPOST Governing Board, Director (Special Duties) and also NIPOST Liason Officer to the National Assembly.

During the tenure of the suspended PMG, the federal government declared that NIPOST was the agency authorised to produce and collect stamp duties across the country.

By this declaration, NIPOST reclaimed the right to collect stamp duties from the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).
