Thursday, 27 May 2021: The Presidency on Thursday approved a major change in the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development.
This was disclosed in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu.
The change involved the swapping of positions by two heads of agencies under the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development.
Shehu said the decision was in order to realise and sustain government’s abiding desire for effective and efficient service delivery in the two organisations.
He added: “Consequently, Mrs. Imaan Suleiman Ibrahim the current Director General of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, (NAPTIP), takes over from Sen. Basheer Garba Mohammed as the Honourable Federal Commissioner for the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons, (NCFRMI), while Senator Mohammed becomes the new Director General of NAPTIP.
“The President further directs that the changes should be effected after comprehensive handover notes to successors.”
Recall that there had been a huge outcry over the appointment of Mrs. Imaan Suleiman Ibrahim when she was appointed by Buhari as the Director General of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons because according to critics she did not possess any relevant working experience to man the position.
