Who Is Ogunjimi?

A career civil servant with over 30 years of experience in financial management across the public and private sectors, Ogunjimi is the most senior director in the Office of the Accountant General of the Federation (OAGF).

He has held notable positions, including Director of Funds at the OAGF and Director of Finance and Accounts at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Ogunjimi is a chartered accountant, certified fraud examiner, chartered stockbroker, and chartered security and investment specialist. His academic credentials include a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Accountancy and a Master’s degree in Finance and Accounting.

President Tinubu expressed confidence in Ogunjimi’s capabilities, stating, “The Office of the Accountant General of the Federation is pivotal to our nation’s treasury management operations. Mr Ogunjimi’s wealth of experience and notable competence will ensure the continued effectiveness of this vital institution as we advance our economic reform agenda.”

Tinubu also praised Dr. Oluwatoyin Madein for her dedication and selfless service to the nation. Dr. Madein is set to retire on March 7, 2025, after reaching the civil service’s statutory retirement age.

Why It Matters
