President Bola Tinubu has appointed Omotenioye Majekodunmi as the new Director-General of the National Council on Climate Change (NCCC). 


This was confirmed in a statement issued on Thursday in Abuja by the Presidential Spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, stating that Majekodunmi will succeed Dr. Nkiruka Madueke, who was appointed as the Council's pioneer head in June 2024.


The statement described Majekodunmi as a seasoned climate finance expert and environmental lawyer with over 17 years of experience, noting that she has worked extensively with global and national institutions on renewable energy, carbon markets, and climate governance, and previously served as the NCCC's Financial Adviser.


The President thanked Dr. Madueke for her dedicated service and credited her with laying a strong foundation for the Council's continued growth. 


He added that Majekodunmi's appointment is expected to further strengthen Nigeria's climate policies and international engagements.
