Musa Adamu Aliyu has been appointed as the new chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Tinubu on Tuesday, approved the appointment of a new management team.
A statement signed by Chief Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President
On Media & Publicity, said that the new Chairman of the ICPC is nominated for confirmation by the Nigerian Senate.
This is following the President’s approval of the outgoing Chairman’s request to proceed on pre-end of tenure leave beginning on November 4, 2023, ahead of the expiration of his tenure on February 3, 2024.
However, the position of Secretary to the Commission does not require Senate confirmation and, therefore, by the directive of the President, the appointment of Mr. Clifford Okwudiri Oparaodu as Secretary of the Commission takes immediate effect.
Among the new appointees are; Dr. Musa Adamu Aliyu — Chairman / Chief Executive Officer, ICPC
Mr. Clifford Okwudiri Oparaodu — Secretary to the Commission, ICPC
