In a move widely hailed by advocates for integrity in governance, President Bola Tinubu appointed Professor Nentawe Yilwatda as the new
Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
The Coalition of Lawyers for Truth and Justice responded positively to Yilwatda’s appointment. CLTJ spokesperson Barrister Moses Okino highlighted Yilwatda’s extensive qualifications, including his PhD in Digital Systems Engineering, describing him as “an outstanding fit” for the role. Yilwatda’s record of transparency, particularly during his tenure at the Independent National Electoral Commission , has built his reputation as a leader of integrity.
Okino pointed to Yilwatda’s involvement in Nigeria’s Integrated Financial Management Information System and the World Bank-funded STEP-B project, which underscore his commitment to addressing food insecurity, disease, and displacement.
