Senate suspends RECs confirmation in protests against Buhari’s refusal to sack Magu

The Nigeria’s Senate has stood down the confirmation of nominees for positions of Resident Electoral Commissioners, after expressing misgivings about President Muhammadu Buhari’s refusal to sack Ibrahim Magu as acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission despite his repeated rejection by the lawmakers.

The Senators also accused nominees of the president of disrespecting the National Assembly.

The Senate therefore resolved to suspend the confirmation in protest.

Mr. Buhari had last week nominated 27 persons for appointment as Resident Electoral Commissioners of INEC.

More to come.

  2. The problem is that of Buhari who has no action. If it were to be OBJ, Saraki would have gone since either through Court or politically.
    There is no corruption fighting back as such,the fighter has determination but too weak and cowardly.

  4. @ananymous 8.09pm, you are very correct. If it were OBJ that these rascals parading themselves as senators, he would have make sure that half of them are no longer in the senate. I have not seen one law enacted by this group for the betterment of the common man but ego and pride is the only thing they keep displaying to the world. We all watched how American senators tackle the issue of Russia and its top level involvement which was broadcast to the world. Am so ashamed of this thugs we called senators.
