 Senate Screens Newly Appointed Service Chiefs in Expedited Session


Nigeria's newly appointed service chiefs appeared before the Senate on Wednesday for screening at the National Assembly Complex, arriving around 10 a.m. accompanied by several senior military officers.


The screening, originally scheduled for an earlier date, was moved to October 29 following a request from President Bola Tinubu.


During Tuesday's plenary, Senate President Godswill Akpabio read the President's letter, which urged the upper chamber to expedite the confirmation process to allow the appointees to assume their roles without delay.


Tinubu specifically sought the Senate's confirmation of General Olufemi Oluyede as Chief of Defence Staff, alongside the other nominated service chiefs.


Akpabio explained that the rescheduling was essential to ensure prompt assumption of duties and maintain continuity in the nation's security framework.


The President's letter emphasised the need for swift action to strengthen coordination within Nigeria's defence architecture.
