Northern Youth Council Welcomes Appointment of Junaidu as Investment Tribunal Chair

Barrister Aminu Junaidu’s nomination as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Investment and Securities Tribunal has been praised by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu by the Northern Youth Council for Asiwaju (NYCA).

The nomination has been characterized as a calculated step to fortify Nigeria’s capital market and increase investor confidence, and it will take effect on September 18, 2025.

Former Zamfara State Attorney-General Junaidu will hold this important position for five years.

According to the NYCA, the President’s dedication to assigning highly skilled people to delicate government roles is demonstrated by Junaidu’s appointment.

The tribunal is expected to benefit from Junaidu’s expertise and integrity as a seasoned technocrat with a wealth of legal and administrative knowledge.

This nomination, according to the organization, will greatly further the Renewed Hope Agenda, which aims to promote stability and economic prosperity.

A key player in settling conflicts within Nigeria’s capital market, the Investment and Securities Tribunal makes sure that investors’ complaints are promptly and equitably resolved.

The tribunal’s effectiveness is expected to increase under Junaidu’s direction, further enhancing Nigeria’s standing as a secure and alluring investment destination.

NYCA President Comrade Usman Usman said, “We express our sincere gratitude to President Tinubu for this thoughtful appointment.

“The choice of Barrister Aminu Junaidu to head a delicate organization like the Investment and Securities Tribunal is another proof of the President’s team’s thorough investigation and diligence in finding one of Northern Nigeria’s brightest minds.

This choice is a testament to the administration’s commitment to proficiency and quality.

He went on to say, “Junaidu is an experienced technocrat whose knowledge will surely greatly benefit the Renewed Hope Agenda. The President clearly prioritizes merit in creating a thriving Nigeria, as seen by his appointment.

“As he continues to make decisions that advance our country, we reassure Mr. President of our unwavering support.”

The NYCA emphasized that Junaidu is special for the position because of his broad background in governance and law.

As a former Attorney-General, the group claimed he showed a dedication to justice and equity, which are critical for the tribunal’s leadership.

His nomination is thought to increase the trust that foreign and local investors have in Nigeria’s capital market.

It is anticipated that Junaidu’s five-year term will bring about changes that will expedite the tribunal’s dispute settlement procedures.

The NYCA thinks that this appointment supports the larger objective of promoting economic resilience.

With Junaidu in charge, the NYCA is sure that the organization will be crucial in drawing in additional capital, which will support economic expansion and job creation.

The organization called on all parties involved to help Junaidu in his new position.

“President Tinubu’s appointment of Barrister Junaidu is a masterstroke,” Comrade Usman Usman added.

He was chosen to head the Investment and Securities Tribunal because of his superb credentials and in-depth knowledge of the legal and financial systems.

“We are sure that his leadership will boost Nigeria’s reputation in the international financial community and increase investor confidence.”

He went on, “The Northern Youth Council for Asiwaju is unwavering in its commitment to President Tinubu’s goal of transformation.

In order to fulfill the promise of a revitalized Nigeria, we urge all Nigerians to support this administration and its nominees, including Junaidu.

The President’s vision for 2023 and beyond is something we are steadfastly committed to.

Northern Nigeria is proud of Junaidu’s selection, which highlights the region’s skill and ability, the NYCA added.

His leadership, according to the organization, will encourage young Nigerians to pursue distinction in their disciplines.
