The nomination of Mogaji Joseph Olasunkanmi Tegbe as a Minister of the Federal Republic is a profound pointer to the “Renewed Hope” agenda’s commitment to meritocracy and technical depth. A seasoned partner at KPMG with an illustrious career spanning decades in financial advisory and strategic consulting, Chief Tegbe represents the rare intersection of boardroom brilliance and grassroots resonance. His appointment is not merely a political placement but a strategic deployment of one of Oyo State’s finest exports, a man whose academic pedigree and professional record and impact in the PBAT’s administration remains a gold standard for public service in the 21st century.
As he prepares to take the helm at the Ministry of Power, Chief Tegbe carries with him the expectations of a nation eager for sustainable energy solutions and industrial revitalisation. I laud him as a “Standard Man”, a leader whose integrity is as unassailable as his competence. His track record in managing complex frameworks and his deep understanding of the Nigerian economic landscape provide the necessary assurance that the challenges of our power sector will be met with the precision of an expert and the heart of a patriot.
As younger generation of leaders and professionals, we continue to look up to him as a mentor and a trailblazer, confident that his tenure will be marked by transparency and transformative results. Our prayers are steadfast for his success in this critical ministry, as his victory in power generation and distribution is ultimately a victory for every Nigerian household and enterprise.
I heartily congratulate the Mogaji of the Tegbe family on this well-deserved elevation.
