President Bola Tinubu’s minister of communications, innovation, and digital economy, Bosun Tijani, has been appointed to the Board of Trustees of the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (@UNITAR).
Tijani announced the development in a tweet, stating that the institution was autonomously established within the United Nations framework to enhance the UN’s effectiveness in achieving its primary objective.
The minister adds that his invitation to serve on the UNITAR Board is seen as a win for Nigeria and a recognition of President @officialABAT’s efforts in promoting economic and social development. Specifically, he acknowledges the success of initiatives like @3MTTNigeria, a talent accelerator, in building capacity and bridging the technology skills gap.
