According to This Day, both men are on a shortlist currently before President Muhammadu Buhari.
Lawal and the Director General of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), Ambassador Ayo Oke, were suspended last week by Buhari, over alleged mismanagement of the funds allocated to the Presidential Initiative on the North-east (PINE) and the discovery of $43million in an apartment in Ikoyi, Lagos.
