Fagbemi, an accomplished lawyer, had made significant contributions to the legal profession in Nigeria.
Prof. Utsev was, until his appointment, the Rector of Federal Polytechnic Wannune, Tarka, Benue State which was established with Federal Polytechnic Ayede, Ayede, Oyo State and four others.
Dr Abdul-Hameed, a Fellow of the Nigerian Society of Engineers, who encouraged Nigerians to support the Tinubu-led administration, expressed confidence that the team of experts appointed as ministers would bring back the fortune of the country.
In a release signed by the institution’s Protocols and Public Relations Officer, Mr Sunday Adepoju, and made available to newsmen in Ogbomoso on Tuesday, Dr Abdul-Hameed explained that the avalanche of experiences garnered by Prof. Mamman, Chief Adelabu, Chief Fagbemi, Prof. Utsev and other ministers would be of immense benefits to the country.
The release read in part: “I want to sincerely congratulate the newly appointed ministers of our dear country, Nigeria. Needless to say that President Bola Tinubu had made the right choices as an astute political icon.
“The likes of Prof. Mamman, Chief Adelabu, Chief Fagbemi, Prof. Utsev and, even, others, have distinguished themselves in their respective careers and I am confident that, under the leadership of President Tinubu, they will perform optimally especially in the President’s commitment to a new better Nigeria.
“I want to plead with the ministers to see this call as a service to God and humanity.
“While I urge them to make judicious use of the opportunity granted to them to serve, I want to encourage Nigerians to pray and support this administration with a view to having a nation of our dream.
“No doubt, the place of prayer cannot, in any way, be neglected if we will have a prosperous nation where justice shall reign.”
