The Senate on Tuesday called out Nigeria’s Acting President Yemi Osinbajo to a constitutional fight over Ibrahim Magu, the acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
One of the decisions was the non-confirmation of Magu twice by the senate. Senators now wanted Magu sacked immediately, NAN reports.
In a four-prayer motion unanimously adopted by the lawmakers, the Senate frowned at a statement credited to the Acting President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo that the Senate had no power to confirm the chairman of the EFCC.
The Senators unanimously resolved to suspend all confirmation requests from the executive until decisions of the legislature are respected by Acting President Yemi Osinbajo.
