There had been reports that applicants pay between N50 million to N100 million for appointments into federal boards and parastatals.
However, Lawal in a statement, said appointments into political offices is the sole prerogative of President Muhammad Buhari.
“For appointment of boards of federal government parastatals and agencies, there is a presidential committee and its memberships are drawn from the six geo-political zones of the federation,” the statement said.
Lawal added that the committee, which liaised with all the states of the federation, had no official of the office of the SGF as member.
He explained that the committee was the only body saddled with responsibility of identifying and recommending qualified and eligible nominees for board appointments for consideration by the president.
He said the committee is composed of men of unimpeachable integrity and honesty in whom the president reposes unqualified confidence to carry out this assignment to his satisfaction. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
