“While I hope that the Senate will consider and confirm the nominees in the usual expeditious manner, please accept, Distinguished Senate President, the assurances of my highest consideration and personal regards.”

Subsequently, in another letter of request, President Tinubu sought confirmation of the appointments of three nominees as members of the Governing Board of the Code of Conduct Bureau, CCB.
