Sen. 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.
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.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Enoh’s appointment follows a cabinet reshuffle by President Bola Tinubu on Oct. 23.
Enoh while emphasising the importance of his new role, said he had previously been confirmed as a minister and was now ready to focus on his responsibilities without needing Senate approval.
The minister pledged to be actively present at the ministry, as his permanent office would be at the ministry.
He, however, said he would presently be operating from the Bank of Industry (BOI), until the office at the ministry was fully functional.
He stressed the critical role of industrialisation in national economic development and restated the need for strategic leadership and policy direction to boost the industry sector.
Enoh called for collaboration among the staff, saying that there was the need to review existing industrial plans and policies to better align with contemporary challenges.
He then expressed enthusiasm about harnessing the ministry’s energy and commitment to making a tangible impact on the industrial landscape.
Earlier, the Permanent Secretary of the ministry, Amb. Nura Rimi welcomed the new Minister of state and expressed the willingness of the ministry’s staff to working with him.
He commended President Bola Tinubu for his wisdom in appointing a minister that had accomplished so much to come and champion industrial revitalisation in Nigeria.
” I must tell you that if anybody can do it, we have the person that can do it.
“It is not by accident that the president brought the minister here, having achieved so much in the Ministry of Sport to come and arrest the precarious situation that we find ourselves in,” he said.
He urged members of staff to join hands and be part of the industrial revitalisation which the minister promised to ensure. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
