The oath-taking occurred just before the commencement of the Valedictory Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting.
The newly appointed commissioners include Senator Ayogu Eze (Enugu State), Peter Opara (Imo State), Hawa Aliyu (Jigawa State), Rekiya Haruna (Kebbi State), Ismaila Agaka (Kwara State), Kolawole Abimbola (Oyo State), and Ayuba Ngako (Federal Capital Territory).
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo also presented a report during the same FEC meeting, representing the findings of the health reform committee.
This committee, led by Vice President Osinbajo, was tasked with developing a plan to achieve Universal Health Coverage in Nigeria.
A key recommendation from the report is the allocation of increased funding for the health sector, surpassing 10 percent.
This gathering of the Federal Executive Council holds significance as it marks President Buhari’s final meeting in his capacity as the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
