Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State has nominated two commissioners for confirmation by the State House of Assembly.
According to him, the nominations to the Assembly were to replace the commissioners in the Ministries of Finance and Reconstruction, Resettlement, and Rehabilitation (RRR), who passed away early this year.
The nominated commissioners for confirmation, before swearing them by the governor, included Umar Faruk and Ali Haladu for the Ministries of Finance and RRR, respectively.
While announcing the receipt of letters of confirmation, the Speaker of the House, Hon. Abdulkarim Lawan, said: “With the governor’s request to confirm the nominated commissioners, Faruk and Haladu, our next sitting on Tuesday will deliberate on their qualifications to hold such an important public office.”
He noted that the commissioners’ confirmation will also ensure the delivery of services to the people in various sectors of the economy.
