The solemn event of inaugurating 45 ministers-designate into the Federal Executive Council is currently in progress at the Conference Centre of the State House in Abuja.

Aguri Ngelale, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Publicity, took the podium to read the citations of the ministers, setting the stage for their official oaths of office.

Chief Justice of Nigeria, Olukayode Ariwoola, presides over the administration of the oath, marking a significant moment in the formal induction of these appointed individuals into their ministerial roles.

The Senate had granted confirmation to 45 of the 48 nominees submitted by the President on August 7. This momentous step signifies the culmination of an extensive process to identify and select capable individuals for these ministerial responsibilities.

The swearing-in ceremony follows a meticulous organisation, with ministers-designate taking their oaths according to their respective states of origin, reflecting the diversity of Nigeria's representation in the Federal Executive Council.

This notable occasion unfolded just days after President Bola Tinubu unveiled the portfolio assignments for the ministerial nominees.

Noteworthy; appointments included former Rivers State governor Nyesom Wike as the Minister of Federal Capital Territory and Festus Keyamo as Minister of Aviation.
