Tinubu Approves Akawor’s Appointment As RMAFC Federal Commissioner

President Bola Tinubu has approved the appointment of Ambassador Desmond Akawor as a Federal Commissioner of the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC), pending the confirmation of the Senate.
The new RMAFC Federal Commissioner, who represents Rivers State, is being appointed following the tragic demise of his predecessor, Hon. Asondu Wenah Temple, earlier this month.
This was contained in a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Chief Ajuri Ngelale.
The President, in the statement, urged the new Federal Commissioner to deploy his robust experience across tiers of government toward the comprehensive reformation of processes that will ensure the most efficient and productive utilization of allocations to all three tiers of government in the country.
Akawor is a decorated public servant who has served the nation as Nigeria’s Ambassador to South Korea; Minister of State of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT); Sole Administrator of the Greater Port Harcourt Development Authority; CEO, Niger Delta River Basin Development Authority, and Executive Director, Nigerian Ports Authority (Engineering & Technical Services).
