President Bola Tinubu has announced the appointment of new leaders for various agencies and programmes under the federal ministry of humanitarian affairs, disaster management, and social development.

The appointments were revealed in a statement by presidential spokesperson Ajuri Ngelale on Tuesday.

Badamasi Lawal has been appointed as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the National Social Investment Programme Agency (NSIPA).

Lawal, a former commissioner for local government and chieftaincy affairs in Katsina, succeeds Halima Shehu, who was suspended by the president over allegations of financial misconduct.
