Senate Confirms Gen. Musa As Minister of Defence

The Senate has confirmed the former Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Christopher Musa, as the Minister of Defence.

The Senate confirmed Musa on Wednesday via a voice vote after a rigorous screening session in which lawmakers asked him many questions.

Musa, who retired barely 40 days ago, was nominated by President Bola Tinubu as the Defence Minister on Tuesday. His nomination was transmitted to the Senate the same day for confirmation.
