The Chairman of the Senate Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Senator Basiru Ajibola, has faulted the nomination of the chairman and members of the Governing Council of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) by President Muhammadu Buhari.
Ajibola expressed his dissatisfaction during Thursday’s screening of the nominees by the Senate Committee on Judiciary, Human Rights and Legal Matters chaired by Senator Opeyemi Bamidele.
The Senate had on March 24 during plenary deliberated on President Buhari’s request for the confirmation of nominations of the chairman and members-designate of the NHRC.
It thereafter referred the president’s list to its committee for further legislative action and mandated it to screen the nominees and report back to plenary.
