Senator John Enoh has officially assumed his role as the new Minister of State for Industry, Trade, and Investment, pledging to drive Nigeria’s economic growth through robust industrial development. His commitment was made during his first day in office on Tuesday in Abuja, where he expressed gratitude for the warm welcome he received.

Enoh’s appointment comes as part of President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet reshuffle on October 23. Having previously been confirmed as a minister, Enoh is now focused on his responsibilities without the need for Senate approval. He indicated that while he would eventually operate from the ministry’s office, he is currently working from the Bank of Industry (BOI) until his office is fully functional.

Emphasizing the importance of industrialization for national economic development, Enoh highlighted the need for strategic leadership and policy direction to enhance the industrial sector. He called for collaboration among ministry staff and the urgent review of existing industrial plans and policies to better address contemporary challenges.

The Permanent Secretary of the ministry, Ambassador Nura Rimi, welcomed Enoh and expressed the staff’s eagerness to work with him. Rimi commended President Tinubu for appointing a minister with a proven track record, noting Enoh’s achievements in revitalizing the Ministry of Sports and his potential to address the current challenges facing Nigeria’s industrial sector.
