The Senior Special Assistant to
President Muhammadu Buhari on National Assembly Matters (Senate), Senator Ita
Enang has appealed to the Senate to screen all pending presidential nominees.
Speaking after the screening of
five Board of Directors of the Central Bank of Nigeria by Senate Committee on
Banking, Insurance and Financial Institutions on Wednesday, he said the report
will be expeditiously treated to enable them start work.
Enang said the Central Bank of
Nigeria was a sensitive organ of the economy that required prompt action of
government in other to maintain robust economy.
He added that the Senate had
shown maturity and understanding in the screening of deputy governors last
month, as well as members of monetary policy committee (MPC).
He urged the Senators to screen
pending nominees of agencies and parastatals of government, adding that
President Buhari was desirous of moving the nation forward.
“I urge Senators to screen all
pending nominees of President Buhari so that agencies and parastatals of
government could function optimally,” he said.
Nigeria Senate had vowed not to
screen nominees of President Buhari due to frosty executive and legislative
relationship occasioned by refusal of the President to remove the Acting EFCC
chairman, Ibrahim Magu.
