President Bola Tinubu has approved the appointment of Mr Shaakaa Chira as the substantive Auditor-General for the Federation.
A statement by Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale said that the appointment was based on the powers vested on Tinubu by Section 86 of the 1999 Constitution (Amended).
He said that the president approved Chira’s appointment after a Federal Civil Service Commission confirmed him as the most qualified candidate out of those screened.
Chira also scored the highest marks in the examination conducted for the office.
Ngelale said that the president tasked the new Auditor-General to justify the confidence reposed in him and live up to the expectations of Nigerians.
