President Tinubu Approves Another Major Appointment

November 23, 2023 • 1 min read

President Bola Tinubu has approved the appointment of Ambassador Desmond Akawor as a Federal Commissioner of the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC).

The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Chief Ajuri Ngelale, in a statement on Thursday in Abuja, said the appointment was pending the confirmation of the Senate.

The new appointment followed the demise of the immediate past RMAFC Federal Commissioner from the Rivers, Hon. Asondu Temple, earlier this month.

Akawor is a decorated public servant who has served the nation as Nigeria’s Ambassador to South Korea; Minister of State of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and Sole Administrator of the Greater Port Harcourt Development Authority.

He also served as the CEO, Niger Delta River Basin Development Authority, and Executive Director, Nigerian Ports Authority (Engineering & Technical Services).

The President tasked Akawor to deploy his robust experience across tiers of government toward the comprehensive reformation of processes.

He said that this would ensure the most efficient and productive utilization of allocations to the three tiers of government.
