President Bola Tinubu has nominated Dr Bernard Doro from Plateau State as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, forwarding his name to the Senate for confirmation.
Doro’s nomination follows the appointment of Prof. Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, as National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in July, creating a ministerial vacancy that President Tinubu aims to fill with Doro’s expertise.
The nomination Doro was announced by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, in a statement released 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.
If confirmed, he will join President Tinubu’s cabinet and be sworn in at a Federal Executive Council meeting.
