Abuja, Nigeria – A significant step in regional development was taken as President Bola Tinubu recently reached out to the Senate to seek confirmation for key appointees to the South West, North Central, and South South Development Commissions. This move is set to bring new leadership to the forefront, aiming to enhance growth and infrastructure across these vital regions.
In a detailed update from NTA News, a total of 19 individuals have been nominated for the North Central Development Commission, with Cosmas Akiyir stepping into the role of chairman and Cyril Yeltsin designated as managing director. These appointments bring a wealth of experience and innovative ideas, which are essential for addressing the unique challenges and opportunities in the North Central region.
The South West Development Commission isn’t left behind, with a slate of 18 nominees, including Senator Olubunmi Adetunbi as the chairman and Charles Akinola as managing director. Their leadership is expected to foster economic development and social cohesion in an area known for its vibrant cultural heritage and economic potential.
Similarly, the South South Development Commission is set to benefit from the expertise of Chibudom Nwuche as chairman and Usoro Offiong Akpabio as managing director, both of whom are poised to make a significant impact on the region’s infrastructure and economic landscape. With their strategic vision, the South South can look forward to a period of robust growth and development, leveraging local resources for widespread benefit.
The Senate is now tasked with the crucial job of screening these nominees. Their confirmations will pave the way for these individuals to begin addressing pressing regional issues. It’s an exciting moment for Nigeria as these commissions are designed not only to enhance development but also to create unity and collective progress among the country’s diverse regions.
