Wale Edun was actually the best appointment of Tinubu govt. He has the most experience and expertise to head the office since Okonjo-Iweala. That is why the economy has been stabilized. He is experienced, well-educated, and bold enough for the office too. Even in terms of education, Taiwo does not come close to him.
This Taiwo Oyedele that you see is not a core finance person; he is a tax man. All his experience at PwC does not involve any core financial or economic expertise beyond taxation. The man has spent his entire career at PwC. He has built nothing, started nothing. How can you use 1 company experience to run a multifaceted minisrry.
Wale, on the other hand, has been part of teams that started many investment and corporate banks, has worked at world bank, and he also owns a finance company.
A tax man cannot lead the Nigerian finance ministry successfully. He knows nothing beyond tax. In terms of education, Wale has a BSc and Master’s degree from the prestigious University of London and Sussex, while Taiwo Oyedele only has an HND from Yabatech and a top-up degree from a UK Brookes University.
No be to write plenty English for bio….
Taiwo is not a suitable finance minister. I don’t know what the mission is in appointing someone inexperienced in finance to head our fragile finance ministry, especially towards the election. It is wrong, it is sad, and we should all be angry.
