Nigeria Senate Rejects Buhari Nominees

-




The Senate on Tuesday confirmed the nominations of 16 members of the Niger Delta Development Commission Board, but rejected the nominations of Mr. Olatokunbo Ajasin, son of the former governor of old Ondo State, late Chief Michael Adekunle Ajasin, as a representative of the state on the board and that of the Abia State, Mr. Donatus Enyinnah.

Both Ajasin and Enyinnah were rejected on the ground that their nominations breached the NDDC Act, as they are not from oil-producing areas of their respective states.

Also the nomination of a member of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Senator Osita Izunaso, who is currently the national organising secretary of the party, was not confirmed as he had earlier declined the offer to serve on the board owing to the opposition to his nomination.

 I WANT AYU TO REMAIN AS PDP CHAIRMAN, SAYS ORTOM AS HE BACKED OUT OF WIKE'S CAMP Benue Governor Samuel Ortom has seemingly pitched his tent with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar over the controversy on Iyorchia Ayu’s stay as National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Ortom, a member of the Governor Nyesom Wike camp, has declared that he wants Ayu to remain as the party chairman. The governor has been siding with his Rivers counterpart since the party’s presidential primary in May, a development that has attracted criticisms from some quarters. The Jemgbagh Development Association, Abuja, recently accused him of working for the downfall of his fellow Benue man, Ayu.

Ikyur recalled that the former Senate President was elected “as the national chairman of our great party even against all odds”. “The governor could not, ...
