Nigerian Senate on Thursday rejected the confirmation of Ibrahim Magu as chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC) as requested by President Mohammadu Buhari.
The Senate said Ibrahim Magu`s rejection was based on Security reported provided DG SSS.
Sen. Sabi Abdullahi, Chairman Senate Committee on Media and Public Affairs, made this known while briefing newsmen in Abuja.
According to Abdullahi, President Muhammadu Buhari will be communicated accordingly.
“The Senate wishes to inform the general public that based on security reports available to the senate, it cannot proceed and confirm the nomination of Ibrahim Magu as the Executive Chairman of EFCC.
“Accordingly, the Senate hereby rejects the said nomination and has returned the said nomination to Mr President for further action,’’ he said.
