Kano Residents Protest Senate Delay in Confirming NERC Chairman Nominee
Kano residents staged a peaceful protest at the National Assembly demanding the immediate confirmation of Engineer Abdullahi Garba Ramat as the chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC). The protest was fueled by allegations of the Senate delaying Ramat's confirmation, with accusations of undermining Tinubu's nomination.
The Senate had suspended the consideration of Ramat's nomination due to multiple petitions, including bribery allegations. The protesters emphasized Ramat's qualifications and urged the Senate to complete the confirmation process promptly to restore confidence in the screening process.
