President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Write To Senate, Seek For Speedy Confirmation Of Aliyu As ICPC Boss.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has written to the Senate for expeditious consideration of the confirmation of the appointment of Adamu Aliyu as Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC).
The appointment of Saka Bolaji Suleiman and Prof. Dantata as members of the Federal Judicial Service Commission was also conveyed in a letter to the Senate President, where President Bola Tinubu sought the Senate’s confirmation.
The Senate equally swore in Senator Amos Yohanna representing Adamawa North senatorial district. He is replacing Senator Elisha Abbo recently removed after the court voided the election of Elisha Abbo as senator representing Adamawa North district.
President Tinubu more than a week ago appointed Dr. Aliyu, as the new Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC).
“The new Chairman of the ICPC is nominated for confirmation by the Nigerian Senate, following the President’s approval of the outgoing Chairman’s request to proceed on pre-end of tenure leave beginning on November 4, 2023, ahead of the expiration of his tenure on February 3, 2024,” the Presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale unveiled in a statement.
