Buhari's Appointees Ignore Senate,Resume Without Confirmation

Some appointees of President Muhammadu Buhari have reportedly shunned due process by resuming office without Senate confirmation.
Those who have been nominated by Buhari but are yet to be confirmed by the Senate, which has been on recess, are Mr. Babatunde Fowler, who was appointed the Executive Chairman of
the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS); Mr. Ahmed Kuru, who was named the new
Managing Director/CEO of the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON); Mr. Kola Ayeye, Ms. Eberechukwu Uneze and Mr. Aminu Ismail, who were named executive directors of AMCON; and Professor Umaru Danbatta, who was nominated as the Executive Vice-Chairman of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC).
THIS DAY reports that senators are quite angry with the situation largely considered a deliberate attempt to disrespect constituted legislative authority. Some Senators believe that such persons have automatically disqualified themselves for acting unconstitutionally
and illegally in capacities clearly defined by law.
Particularly disturbing, according to one senator from the South-west zone who spoke on the issue, is the fact that some of the nominees have already begun to sign off on the disbursement of funds.
