President Bola Tinubu has transmitted a letter to the Senate seeking the confirmation of Dr Bernard Mohammed Doro from Plateau State as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The nomination follows the elevation of Prof. Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, who previously served as Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction, to the position of National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in July.
Dr Doro, born on January 23, 1969, in Kwall, Bassa Local Government Area of Plateau State, brings more than two decades of diverse experience spanning clinical practice, pharmaceutical management, strategic leadership, and community engagement across the United Kingdom and Nigeria.
A highly qualified professional, he holds degrees in Pharmacy and Law, an MBA with a focus on IT-driven business strategy, and a Master’s in Advanced Clinical Practice.
He currently serves as an Independent Prescriber and Advanced Clinical Practitioner with the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK, with frontline experience in urgent care, walk-in centres, general practice, and hospital services.
Beyond his medical career, Dr Doro has championed youth mentorship and social impact initiatives both in the Nigerian diaspora and local communities.
