President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the appointment of Abdulrazak Sa’ad Namdas as the new Director-General of the Border Communities Development Agency (BCDA).
The appointment was announced on Friday in a statement issued by the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.
Namdas succeeds Dr. Dakorinama Alabo George, who resigned from the position to contest an elective office in his home state.
A former member of the House of Representatives who represented the Ganye/Jada/Mayo Belwa/Toungo Federal Constituency of Adamawa State, Namdas previously served as spokesperson for the 8th House of Representatives. He also contested in the recently concluded governorship primary election in Adamawa State.
Before joining active politics, Namdas built a career in journalism and public relations, serving as Chief Press Secretary to former Adamawa State Governor Boni Haruna.
In a separate appointment, President Tinubu named former lawmaker Patrick Obahiagbon as Executive Director, Strategy and Commercial, of the Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPHC).
Obahiagbon replaces Engineer Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama, who stepped down from the role to pursue his political ambition in Edo State. The former lawmaker has served in both the Edo State House of Assembly and the National Assembly.
The President also reappointed Chukwuma Umeoji as Executive Director, Corporate Services, of the NDPHC.
Umeoji, who represented Aguata Federal Constituency of Anambra State in the 9th House of Representatives, returns to the position after previously resigning to pursue his political aspirations in his home state.
According to the Presidency, all the appointments take immediate effect.
