The Senate has begun screening Musa Aliyu, a nominee of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for appointment as chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offenses Commission (ICPC).
The screening started around 11:50am after Leader, Bamidele Opeyemi, raised a point order to suspend relevant senate rules to allow strangers into the chamber.
Aliyu, a lawyer and Attorney-General of Jigawa State will be screened at the Committee of a Whole chaired by the Deputy President, Barau Jibirin.
The nominee was named as chairman of the ICPC with Clifford Oparaodu as secretary of the commission last Tuesday.
