The senate committee on ethics and public petitions has screened Abdullahi Usman Bello as chair of the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB).
Bello (pictured in blue suit) appeared before the committee for the screening exercise on Tuesday.
While appearing before the committee, the CCB chair nominee promised to make the country proud in discharging his duties at the bureau.
“The work is about ensuring integrity, transparency and accountability among public and civil servants,” he said.
Following the screening exercise, the committee will now recommend to plenary to confirm him.
President Bola Tinubu appointed Bello as CCB chair in March.
The nominee has more than 25 years of work experience in consulting, banking, law enforcement, financial services, and academia.
“The President anticipates that the new Chairman, upon confirmation by the Senate, will lead the Bureau with utmost integrity toward the realization of its mandate of maintaining high standards of public morality in the conduct of government business and ensuring that the actions and behaviour of public officers conform to the highest standards of morality and accountability,” Ajuri Ngelale, presidential spokesperson, had said at the time of his appointment.
