Musiliu Smith
President Muhammadu Buhari has appointed a former Inspector-General of Police, Musiliu Smith, as Chairman of the Police Service Commission (PSC).
Smith’s name has been forwarded to the Senate for approval as he will succeed former IGP and PSC Chairman, Mike Okiro.
The President also appointed five others as members of the Commission.
Senate President, Bukola Saraki, who read a letter from President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday for the upper chamber to confirm the new appointee, also said five other members of the PSC have also been forwarded for approval.
Okiro had been serving as Chairman of PSC since May 2013 when he was appointed by former President, Goodluck Jonathan.
