President Muhammadu Buhari has appointed Senator Basheer Mohammed as the new Director General of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP).
Garba Shehu, Presidential spokesman, announced the new appointment in a statement on Thursday.
According to Shehu, the President also approved some key changes under the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development.
Shehu said the action was taken in order to realise and sustain government’s abiding desire for effective and efficient service delivery in the two organisations.
He noted that Mrs Imaan Suleiman Ibrahim who is the Director General of NAPTIP will take over from Mohammed as the Honourable Federal Commissioner for the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI).
