President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the appointment of Shamseldeen Ogunjimi as the new Accountant-General of the Federation, following a rigorous and merit-based selection process.

Ogunjimi will assume office on March 7, 2025, succeeding the outgoing Oluwatoyin Madein, who is set to retire on the same day.

A statement released by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information & Strategy, on Tuesday confirmed Ogunjimi’s appointment, highlighting the competitive nature of the selection process.

The statement read in part, “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Shamseldeen Babatunde Ogunjimi as the new Accountant General of the Federation after a rigorous selection process.

“His appointment, approved today, takes effect from 7th March 2025, the same day the incumbent Oluwatoyin Madehin will retire.”

According to the statement, Ogunjimi was initially named as Madehin’s successor in December 2024 before undergoing further assessments to secure the position.

The selection process was conducted by a designated committee and involved Directors of Accounts in the Federal Civil Service.

The process was carried out in three distinct stages, including a written assessment, an ICT proficiency test, and oral interviews.
