Youth council hails nomination of Bawa as EFCC chairman, calls for speedy confirmation
On
Abdulrasheed Bawa
The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) has described Abdulrasheed Bawa as a “world class crime buster” whose services as Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) are greatly needed to advance the fight against corruption in Nigeria.
President Muhammadu Buhari had on Tuesday sent the nomination of 40-year-old Bawa to the Senate for confirmation, saying the request was in accordance with paragraph 2 (3) of Part1, CAP E1 of EFCC Act 2004.
Reacting in a statement, the NYCN said the nomination “signals a positive turn in the war against corruption” and must therefore be urgently considered for approval by the Senate.

It will be in line with one of the recommendations of the Ayo Salami panel, which investigated the commission and Ibrahim Magu last year.
