Bola Tinubu Nominates Kingsley Ude as Minister, Seeks Senate Approval

Nigerian political leader Bola Tinubu has nominated Dr. Kingsley Tochukwu Ude, a senior advocate from Enugu State, as a minister in the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Tinubu's letter to the Senate, read during a plenary session by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, urges swift consideration of Ude's nomination.

The appointment comes after the resignation of Geoffrey Uchenna Nnaji from the Ministry of Innovation, Science, and Technology in Enugu State due to allegations of certificate forgery. Dr. Ude is highly respected in legal circles for his contributions to legal advocacy and public service in Enugu State.
