President Bola Tinubu appoints Kunle Elebute as Chairman of the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria (FRC). Multiple outlets report that the appointment is announced through a statement attributed to Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga. Elebute is described as a chartered accountant and a financial management consultant. The stated purpose of the appointment is to strengthen corporate governance and improve transparency in financial reporting, reflecting the FRC’s role in regulating and promoting credible financial disclosures. The reports present the appointment as part of Tinubu’s ongoing efforts to reinforce oversight of corporate financial practices. Both sources agree on Elebute’s selection for the chairman role and on the government’s stated rationale focused on governance and transparency. Neither source provides detailed information about the length of the appointment, specific policy targets, or immediate changes to the council’s operations. The reports therefore center on the leadership change and its governance-oriented intent.
