According to the Punch papers, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s recent announcement of ministerial portfolios for confirmed nominees has shed light on the roles of individuals such as Uju Kennedy, Betta Edu, Doris Anite, and Onyejeocha. These accomplished women underwent screening and confirmation by the Nigerian Senate a few days prior.
