President Bola Tinubu has expressed confidence in newly appointed minister Taiwo Oyedele saying he believes the appointee is well suited for the responsibilities of the office.

Tinubu made the remark during a meeting with the new minister shortly after the announcement of the appointment. The president stated that Oyedele’s professional background and experience in economic policy and fiscal reforms make him qualified to handle the task ahead.

According to the president the government is committed to strengthening economic reforms and improving revenue generation in the country. He said the administration expects the new minister to bring innovative ideas that will help stabilise the economy and promote sustainable growth.

Oyedele is widely known for his work in tax policy and fiscal reforms and has previously advised both government institutions and private sector organisations on economic matters.

The appointment comes at a time when the government is pushing for broader economic reforms aimed at improving public finances and expanding opportunities for investment across Nigeria.

Observers say the new minister is expected to play a key role in shaping fiscal policies that could influence taxation revenue generation and economic development in the coming years.
