The World Bank has appointed Nigeria’s Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, as the Chairman of the African Governors’ Forum.
This appointment is significant as it marks the first time Nigeria has assumed this role in 60 years.
The African Governors’ Forum serves as a platform for African finance ministers and central bank governors to engage with the World Bank on matters of mutual interest.
Wale Edun’s appointment presents a unique opportunity for Nigeria and aligns with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
