President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has sworn in new Federal Commissioners for the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) and the National Population Commission (NPC).
The swearing-in ceremony was held on Monday at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, shortly before the commencement of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting.
For the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission, the President administered the oath of office to Abdullahi Mukhtar Mohammed, a former Chairman of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON), representing Kaduna State, and Amina Gamawa, representing Bauchi State.
President Tinubu also inaugurated six new Federal Commissioners for the National Population Commission. They are Kolawole Oladipupo Alabi (Ekiti State), Nasiru Mu'azu (Zamfara State), Isaka Alada Yahaya (Kwara State), Prof. Sadiq Isah Radda (Katsina State), Suleiman Umar (Jigawa State), and Chiso Abdullahi Dattijo (Sokoto State).
The appointments are expected to strengthen the operations of both commissions in the discharge of their constitutional responsibilities, including population management and fiscal allocation across the federation.
The inauguration took place ahead of the Federal Executive Council meeting presided over by President Tinubu.
