BEVERLY HILLS, March 23, (THEWILL) – The Senate has confirmed the nomination of Wakil Bukar for appointment as Commissioner for the Federal Civil Service Commission.
The confirmation of the nominee followed consideration of a report by the Committee on Establishment and Public Service during plenary on Tuesday.
As Chairman of the Committee, Sen. Ibrahim Shekarau, observed, “The nominee possessed the requisite constitutional requirements.”
The requirements are specified under the provisions of section 156 of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) that qualifies him to be appointed as a Commissioner in the Federal Civil Service Commission.
Shekarau said, “There is no adverse security report before the committee against the appointment of the nominee as a Commissioner in the Federal Civil Service Commissioner as both the DSS and Police Report submitted to the Committee on the life of the nominee to date did not reveal any iota of crime or wrongdoing against him.
“There was no petition before the Committee against the nomination and appointment of the nominee as a Commissioner.
“Accordingly, he is hereby affirmed to be fit and the proper person for confirmation by the Senate for appointment as Commissioner in the Federal Civil Service Commission.”
The Senate, thereafter, confirmed Wakil’s nomination.
