Nigerian Senate Screens New Minister of Defence, General Christoph Musa
The Nigerian Senate has commenced the screening process for General Christoph Musa, the nominee for the Minister of Defence, succeeding Abubakar Badaru who resigned. The nomination was made by President Bola Tinubu, and the Senate, led by Godswil Akpabio, is overseeing the screening live on Channel Television.
This move comes after a letter was transmitted to the Senate urging lawmakers to consider the nomination. The process involves suspending Senate rules to allow General Musa to be admitted to the chamber for the screening.
