The Honourable Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun, remains in excellent health and fully active in the discharge of his national responsibilities. Following widespread speculation about his wellbeing, J.O.Comms has conducted all the necessary research and engagement with credible sources and can authoritatively confirm that the Minister is in perfect health, actively leading Nigeria’s economic reform efforts with dedication and clarity.
Mr. Edun has continued to play a central role in the Federal Government’s economic direction under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Three weeks ago, he was a key participant at the Northern Nigeria Investment and Industrialisation Summit 2025, where he engaged investors, state officials, and industry leaders on the government’s plan to unlock industrial opportunities and attract sustainable investment into the northern region. His presentations at the summit were widely praised for their depth, policy insight, and vision for inclusive growth.
In continuation of his official engagements, the Minister was also present last week at the 31st Nigerian Economic Summit in Abuja, where he joined national leaders, development partners, and private sector executives in deliberations on Nigeria’s economic future. His active contribution to the discussions demonstrated his consistent leadership and deep understanding of the economic realities shaping the country.
It is important to note that even media platforms that earlier speculated on the Minister’s health have since changed their narrative, following his multiple public appearances and high-level engagements. The Minister has continued to discharge his duties with the same vigour and professionalism that have defined his tenure, earning recognition for his disciplined approach and results-driven leadership.
J.O.Comms can therefore confirm that Mr. Wale Edun remains healthy, focused, and fully committed to steering Nigeria’s economy toward greater stability and growth. His recent activities reaffirm the confidence reposed in him by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and demonstrate his unwavering dedication to advancing the Renewed Hope economic agenda.
