Wale Edun Gets World Bank Appointment

The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun, has been appointed as the Chairman of the African Governors’ Forum of the World Bank.

This was made known in a post on the official X (formerly Twitter) account of the Federal Ministry of Finance on Saturday.

The ministry said that the appointment marks the first time Nigeria has assumed the role of Chairman in 60 years.

A unique opportunity for Nigeria and the execution of President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda is also underlined by the statement regarding the appointment.

The post reads; “Nigeria’s Minister @FinMinNigeria & Coordinating Minister of the Economy Mr. Wale Edun has been appointed to Chair the African Governors’ Forum of the World Bank.
