Breaking: Senate sacks CCT chairman
The Nigerian Senate has officially removed Danladi Umar as Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT), paving the way for Abdullahi Bello to assume the position as the new substantive chairman.
Umar’s removal came after a decisive closed-door session on Wednesday, where 84 out of the 107 serving senators signed in favor of his ousting. The move was in accordance with Section 157(1) of the 1999 Constitution, which empowers the Senate to remove the head of a statutory body with a two-thirds majority vote when allegations of gross misconduct and misdemeanors are substantiated.
The Senate has yet to release further details on the investigation that led to Umar’s dismissal.
