President Bola Tinubu has nominated Dr Bernard Doro from Plateau State as a Minister.
Tinubu has forwarded Doro’s name to the Senate for confirmation.
Doro’s nomination comes after the election of Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, the former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, as the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress in July.
The Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, announced the nomination in a statement on Tuesday.
Born on January 23, 1969, in Kwall, Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau State, Onanuga said Doro brings more than two decades of experience spanning clinical practice, pharmaceutical management, strategic leadership, and community development in both the United Kingdom and Nigeria.
“He has degrees in Pharmacy and law, an MBA focusing on IT-driven business strategy, and a Master’s in Advanced Clinical Practice..
“He is an Independent Prescriber and Advanced Clinical Practitioner with NHS frontline experience across urgent care, walk-in centres, GP practices, and hospital settings,” the statement read.
Beyond his medical and administrative expertise, Doro has been active in youth mentorship and social impact initiatives in both the Nigerian diaspora and local communities.
