Olorogun Okumagba in a press statement said the nomination of Barrister Keyamo as Minister in the cabinet of President Tinubu is well deserved given his pedigree as a technocrat and one of the committed Leaders in the APC.

He further stated that “I am hopeful that Keyamo will bring all these and more to bear on his office after his confirmation and swearing-in. His work as Spokesperson of our Party’s 2023 Presidential Campaign Council shows his commitment to our party and our President and his faith in the “Renewed Hope” Agenda of President Tinubu.”

Olorogun Okumagba also congratulated other nominees for the federal cabinet, urging them to put the nation and the interest of the people above all else upon assuming their offices, after confirmation by the Senate.
