Reps Panel Summons NIMASA DG For Shunning Invitation

By Samuel Itsede

House of Representatives Commit￾tee on Federal Character has summoned the director-general of Nigeria Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Dayo Mobereola.

This followed his failure to honor an invitation. The chairman of the committee, Hon. Idris Wase, who expressed displeasure over his absence at the hearing at the National Assembly
Complex, rejected Mobereola’s
representative.

Mobereola had sent the director
of administration and human re￾sources, Osembi Osigche, to represent him at the session. A livid Wase said the director-general had not shown regard for the committee and demanded that he
must appear in person before the panel on July 30, 2024.

“This is considered a provi￾sion in the 1999 Constitution, as amended, and I take you straight to 8-1, it says, in the 3rd Schedule, in giving effect to Section 14, 3-D and 4-D, a portion I just address to you of this Constitution, the Committee shall have the power to walk out an executive subject to the approval of the National Assembly for the prosecution of all cadres of force in the public service of the Federation and of the State.

“The chief executive is not here.
He has communicated to us to ask
the question that the director of ad￾ministration of human resources,
Mr. Osembi Osigche, be allowed to
represent him because of other official engagements.

“There are some questions that
we may ask that the representative
may not be able to answer. So, I
think we should make sure that the
chief executives are here before us
