Ms Patience Oniha has been announced as the new Director General of the Debt Management Office (DMO).
Ms Oniha’s appointment as the new debt office boss was approved by the Acting President, Mr Yemi Osinbajo.
She replaces the former DG of DMO, Mr Abraham Nwankwo, who retired from office after spending 10 years.
Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun, announced the appointment of Ms Oniha yesterday in Abuja.
The appointee had retired as a director in the agency and had also served in the efficiency unit of the Ministry of Finance before her recent post.
Mrs Adeosun expressed confidence in the ability of the new Director General to take the organisation to greater heights and manage the country’s debts very well.
The DMO is an agency of the Federal Government established to centrally coordinate the management of Nigeria’s debt.
Mr Nwankwo, during his tenure, coordinated the agency and made it a very respectable government agency, both home and abroad.
