President Tinubu Nominates Dr. Bernard Doro For Senate Confirmation As Minister From Plateau State
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has nominated Dr. Bernard Mohammed Doro from Plateau State for confirmation by the Senate as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The announcement was made on Tuesday by Bayo Onanuga, the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy.
In a letter to the National Assembly, President Tinubu requested that Dr. Doro be screened and confirmed to occupy Plateau State’s ministerial slot. This follows Professor Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda’s election as National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in July. Yilwatda previously served as Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction.
Born on January 23, 1969, in Kwall, Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau State, Dr. Doro has over 20 years of experience across clinical practice, pharmaceutical management, strategic leadership, and community engagement in both Nigeria and the United Kingdom.
Dr. Doro holds degrees in Pharmacy and Law, an MBA focused on IT-driven business strategy, and a Master’s degree in Advanced Clinical Practice. He is also an Independent Prescriber and Advanced Clinical Practitioner, with extensive frontline experience in the UK’s National Health Service (NHS), including urgent care, walk-in centres, general practice, and hospital settings.
Beyond his professional work, Dr. Doro has been actively involved in youth mentorship and social impact initiatives, contributing to communities both in the Nigerian diaspora and at home.
