The Senate, on Tuesday, confirmed the nomination of Engr. 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.

 

In his presentation, Chairman of the Committee, Sen.

According to the lawmaker, “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 The 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.”

 

He also said that “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,” Shekarau said.
