Tinubu’s Nominees, Raheem And Abayomi, Successfully Confirmed By Senate As NPC Commissioners

Lawmakers reached a decision today, Wednesday, based on the review of a report presented by the Senate Committee on National Identity and Population Commission. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu formally requested the confirmation of Raheem and Abayomi in a letter read by Senate President Godswill Akpabio last month. The President invoked section 154(1) of the country’s Constitution, expressing optimism about the Senate promptly considering his proposal.

Raheem, residing in Osun State, is a respected university professor heading the Department of Public Administration at Fountain University in Osogbo. He previously served as a lawmaker representing Iwo Constituency 1 in the Osun House of Assembly in 1992, holding the position of chief whip. Raheem also served as the commissioner for water resources and energy during Gboyega Oyetola’s administration, the former governor of Osun.

Hon Fasua Abayomi Johnson, widely known as FAJ in Ogun’s political circle, was a former Chairman of the House of Assembly Committee on Works.
