The Police Service Commission has nominated a retired Justice of the Supreme Court, Justice Clara Bata Ogunbiyi, as the acting PSC chairman.
This followed the resignation of the PSC chairman, Musiliu Smith, who resigned on health grounds.
The latest development was made known via a statement issued on Thursday by the PSC spokesperson, Ikechukwu Ani.
Ani noted that Justice Ogunbiyi, who was until her nomination the Commissioner 1 in the Commission and next in hierarchy to the former chairman, expressed her appreciation to her colleagues for the confidence reposed in her and pledged to run an inclusive administration based on the rule of law.
