Senate has appointed Senator Aniekan Bassey as the new Chairman of the Committee on Diaspora and Non-Governmental Organizations, replacing Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, who is currently suspended.
Recall Akpoti-Uduaghan was reassigned to this committee in February after being removed as Chair of the Senate Committee on Local Content.
The change is believed to be related to her unresolved suspension, despite a court order in May for her reinstatement and an apology, which the Senate has yet to acknowledge officially.
