REVEALED: Why President Tinubu Appoints Yoruba Man, Shamseldeen Ogunjimi as New Accountant General
However, an investigation by Egalitarian Voice has revealed that Mr. Babatunde Ogunjimi is a highly qualified candidate, with over 30 years of experience in financial management across both public and private sectors. As the most senior director in the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF), Ogunjimi has held significant positions, including Director of Funds at the OAGF and Director of Finance and Accounts at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Ogunjimi is a chartered accountant, certified fraud examiner, chartered stockbroker, and chartered security and investment specialist, with a Bachelor of Science in Accountancy and a Master’s degree in Finance and Accounting. His impressive credentials and wealth of experience make him an ideal candidate for the position of Acting Accountant General.
Despite the criticism, President Tinubu has expressed confidence in Ogunjimi’s ability to lead the treasury operations of the country effectively. The President emphasized the critical role of the Accountant General’s office in the nation’s economic reforms, stating that Ogunjimi’s appointment is a strategic move to ensure a smooth transition in the nation’s treasury management and consolidate ongoing reforms under the Tinubu administration.
The appointment of Ogunjimi is effective immediately, following the pre-retirement leave of the incumbent AGF, Dr. (Mrs.) Oluwatoyin Sakirat Madein, who will officially retire on March 7, 2025. Dr. Madein has been praised for her dedication and service to the nation, and her retirement marks the end of an era in the nation’s treasury management.
