A former Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development, Salamatu Suleiman, has been named chairman of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Suleiman served as a minister of women affairs and also minister of state for foreign affairs in the administration of late President Umaru Yar’Adua.

She also served as commissioner in charge of political affairs, peace and security at the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) commission from 2012 to 2016.

The president also appointed 14 other members of the board of the NHRC.

This was made known in a letter he wrote to the Senate seeking its consideration and possible confirmation of the nominees.


In the letter which was read out by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, at the start of plenary on Tuesday, the president said the appointment is pursuant to Section 2(3) of the National Human Rigthts Commission Act as amended.


Other nominees include Beatrice Jedy-Agba, Umar Salisu, Dafe Adesida, Joseph Mmamel, and Ahmad Fingilla.

The letter will be transmitted to the appropriate committee for screening after which a report will be presented to the Senate recommending the confirmation or rejection of the appointees.

The NHRC was established in 1995 to serve as an extra-judicial mechanism aimed at promoting, protecting and enforcing human rights.

Only if Nigerians knew...

Gavnment of ze north,por ze north and by ze north.
Know this and know peace

Northern and Muslims government.

And you wonder why Nigeria is so backward, why won't the so called giant of Africa be backward, when quota system people are in sensitive positions of the zoo.

Government for the north, of the north, and by the north.... if say e dey possible... buhari for use northerners as state governors for Apc states for South.... even add lagos to north sef.....

how can a mad, dementia n incompetent man terrorize almost over 200 something million people

God will punish any Southern President that won't do same. the next Nigerian president should come from the south and be a Christain. All his appointments should be christians. What kind of nepotism is this

Nigeria ebezina, emesia o ga adi mma.

This country is a complete shithole. Buhari has finished the shithole with nepotism.

I'm tired

Those waiting for 2023 to stop Buharis nepotism may find out later that by that time, it would have been late to roll back the enermous damage done to officialdom in the country! Buhari is not acting like somebody preparing to hand over to a non northerner. Everything points to a very crude plan to retain power for the north at all cost and treat other Nigerians as captives in their own country.. Buhari is setting Nigeria on fire!

Notherners are truly the first class citizens.

Sadly, some ignorant Folks think having Tinubu as president will change a thing. Nah, that burdilion drug Lord will just be as inconsequential as our current vp.


THE SOLUTION IS TO BREAK THE NATION.

And this common goal can only be achieved when the southerners unite and fight as one.

Always give appointment that yield nothing but corruption.

only a moronic f00l will believe that such a nepotistic man will hand over to anybody that is not fulani.

Northocracy...a new form of government under Buhari...idiots

This is not ONE NIGERIA.. He has set the template for a long run of nepotism in this country and it will continue beyond 2023 be it Southern or Northern President.

please

He is not even trying to pretend about the fact that he considers other tribes as nothing in the Nigerian project.

Nigeria na our country for mouth. In reality, Nigeria belongs to the North.

Our southern leaders are like the Herods of biblical times who though Jews, were simply servants of the Roman Empire.

As it stands, all southern political leaders are servants of the North, and no form of diplomacy can change the status quo. We either live with it, or fight our way out.

So sad. I no get mouth for my own supposed country.

another northerner or are my eyes deceiving me

Nepotism at its highest order

Only if Nigerians knew...

They allowed themselves to be deceived. That is history now, we move forward. May God help the unfavored and unconnected people in Nigeria. Send them help by the mercies of heaven.

to a leadership position, it's
