The National Assembly has officially confirmed the appointment of Musa Aliyu as Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC)
He was confirmed by the Senate after a screening session on Thursday during the plenary.
The screening started at exactly 11:50 a.m. after the leader, Michael Opeyemi Bamidele, asked the house to temporarily suspend some Senate rules, which will allow non-members to enter the chamber.
Deputy President Jibirin Barau of the Committee of a Whole led the screening of Aliyu, who was the attorney general of Jigawa State until his confirmation as the Chairman of ICPC.
President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday sent a letter to the Senate, requesting confirmation for Aliyu as the agency’s chairman.
