BREAKING: Magu’s Confirmation Causes Row In Senate by DONSMITH123(op): 11:57am On Dec 15, 2016
Leke Baiyewu, Abuja

The plan to conduct the screening of the Acting Chairman, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission today is causing confusion at the Senate.

The lawmakers are currently in a close-door executive session over the matter.

It was reliably learnt that the usual pre-session meeting of the principal officers, which holds at the Senate President’s office, was rowdy this morning as senators were said to have engaged themselves in a shouting match.

A source who witnessed the clash said the Leader of the Senate, Senator Ali Ndume and Senator Dino Melaye, who was alleged to be against Magu’s confirmation, specifically engaged themselves at the meeting.

Although the screening had been listed on the Order Paper as part of activities at the chamber today, it is uncertain if the exercise will hold due to the latest development.

As I expected. Magu will find it hard to scale through. Now that he has let Saraki and Co. go, it will be easier for him.

Govt of the north, for the north and by the north.....of course he is a NORTHERNER, so he will surely be confirmed so that his mentor at the helm of affairs will fully utilize him to destroy his perceived political enemies before 2019.

Our corrupt senators want to block the confirmation of an efficient and fearless fighter of corruption. They better know that Nigerians and the international community are watching them, whatever they do will send the right or wrong signal about our seriousness to uproot corruption in our country.

Its unfortunate that these few politicians are taking Nigerians for granted and some people will be supporting them.
Is it a crime to do one's work in Nigeria?

#bunch of corrupt individuals.

I just don't get this...If the "distinguished" senators have valid reason EFCC chairman, they should let us know so that he can be replaced with another no-nonsense corruption hating person...All these dilly-dallying is just a waste of time and resources and Legislative rascality. How long will it take to confirm or reject an individual's appointment? what's with all the delay?

How did he let Saraki scale through? You should ask the chairman of the CCT why he's so tolerant of the delay antics of saraki's defence team. The EFCC investigation into the Saraki's has been presented to the CCT.
