PRESIDENT TINUBU APPOINTS NEW DIRECTOR-GENERAL OF THE BUDGET OFFICE OF THE FEDERATION

President Bola Tinubu has approved the appointment of Mr. Tanimu Yakubu as the Director-General of the Budget Office of the Federation, following the expiration of the tenure of Mr. Ben Akabueze.

Mr. Yabuku is an accomplished economist and was Chief Economic Adviser to a former President from 2007 to 2010; Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria from 2003 to 2007, and Commissioner of Finance, Budget, and Economic Planning in Katsina State from 1999 to 2003.

The new Director-General of the Budget Office of the Federation holds a Master of Business Administration degree in Finance from Wagner College, Staten Island, New York, and a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from the same institution.

President Tinubu thanks the outgoing Director-General, Mr. Akabueze, for his services and wishes him success in his future endeavours.

The President expects the new Director-General of this pivotal agency to further enhance the provision of efficient and qualitative budget functions, with a view to promoting fiscal sustainability, transparency, and accountability in public finance management for national development.

Ben Akabueze that is going nko? Has he not been part of the system since Tinubu'd first term as Lagos then Tinubu appointed him as Commissioner for Budget? He had that position throughout Fashola'd two terms as made by Tinubu. Was it not the Same Tinubu that handed him over to Buhari to head Budget Office?

Looking at the comments above, you can easily know that some people will never agree so far it's not from their region. Even if the guy has PhD in either accounting or economics, so far he is not from their region just forget it. That's how chronic and self centered they are.
Re: President Tinubu Appoints Tanimu Yakubu As Director-General Of The Budget Office by Thegamingorca(m): 8:22am On Jun 14, 2024
Bullshit parastatals.. what is a budget office or ministry going to do for the common man now? Can't one useless senator be in charge of the senate committee on budget? Why waste money to create ministries so ppl can siphon money.

Are you really serious in tackling wasteful spending and corruption?


At this point only fools see nothing wrong with this senile man's government
