The Senate passed the Police Reform Bill on April 17, 2019 and the President signed the Act in 2020.
The Bill seeks to make sure that appointment of such (IGP) is subject to confirmation of the Senate as it applies to all service chiefs, Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), ministers, ambassadors, heads of statutory commissions and agencies.
Based on this, the President cannot confirm him, but appoint him.
Anybody more knowledgeable should please enlighten us.
