Uzoka-Anite was initially appointed in August 2023 as Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment. However, she was replaced in October 2024 by Jumoke Oduwole after just over a year in office.
Following her exit from the trade ministry, she was redeployed to the Ministry of Finance as Minister of State, working under the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun. At the time, Edun described her appointment as significant to driving the administration’s economic reform programme.
With the new redeployment, she has yet to complete two years in any single ministerial position since her appointment to the cabinet.
