John Enoh, the new Minister of State for Industry, Trade and Investment, has expressed his commitment to driving Nigeria’s economic growth through industrial development.
Mr Enoh made the commitment at his assumption to duty on Tuesday in Abuja, and expressed gratitude for the warm welcome he received upon his arrival.
Mr Enoh’s appointment follows the recent cabinet reshuffle by President Bola Tinubu on October 23.
Mr Enoh said he had previously been confirmed as a minister and was now ready to focus on his responsibilities without needing Senate approval.
He had served as the Minister of Sports Development before he was reassigned by President Tinubu to the new ministry.
The minister of state restated the need for strategic leadership and policy direction to boost the industry sector.
He said there was a need to review existing industrial plans and policies to better align with contemporary challenges.
Earlier, the Permanent Secretary of the ministry, Amb. Nura Rimi welcomed the minister and expressed the willingness of the ministry’s staff to work with him.
