Nigeria’s leader, Bola Tinubu, has put forward Dr Bernard Doro from Plateau State as a new member of the federal cabinet, sending his name to lawmakers for their approval.
The announcement came in a formal notice on Tuesday from Bayo Onanuga, the president’s chief adviser on information and strategy.
Born on 23 January 1969 in Kwall, a village in Bassa council area of Plateau State, Doro brings more than 20 years of hands-on work in patient care, medicine oversight, planning leadership, and community building, split between the United Kingdom and Nigeria.
He holds qualifications in pharmacy and law, along with a business degree centred on technology-led company plans, and a further master’s in high-level medical skills. As a licensed prescriber and skilled healthcare worker, he has served on the front lines of Britain’s health system, handling urgent needs, drop-in clinics, family doctors’ offices, and hospital wards.
Doro has also poured effort into guiding young people and running projects that lift everyday lives, both among Nigerians abroad and back home.
This pick follows the promotion of Professor Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, who left his post as minister for aid and poverty relief in July to become head of the ruling All Progressives Congress.
Close sources in the presidential circle say Tinubu shared his thoughts on filling two empty spots in the government lineup during a quiet chat with trusted helpers on Monday evening. That includes the role for innovation, science, and technology, left open after a recent resignation.
Should senators give the go-ahead, Doro would take his seat at the next full council meeting, where he would swear an oath of duty.
