Fasua announced his appointment on X(formerly known as Twitter) saying he is “excited to contribute to the national development efforts of the administration” in his new role.
A fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN), Fasua studied economics at Ondo State University, where he graduated top of his class in 1991.
