On Tuesday, the Senate confirmed the nomination of Engr. Sani Mohammed Ndanusa for the position of Non-Career Ambassador/High Commissioner of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. This confirmation came after the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs, headed by Senator Sani Abubakar (Niger North), screened the nominee based on a report presented by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Following the Foreign Affairs Committee's scrutiny, Senate President Godswill Akpabio presented the recommendations to the plenary. After a unanimous affirmative voice vote by lawmakers, the Senate President formally declared Ndanusa's confirmation.

Expressing confidence in the newly confirmed diplomat, the Senate President anticipated that Ndanusa would utilize his extensive professional experience to further Nigeria's foreign policy goals and bolster diplomatic relations abroad. With the legislative screening and confirmation process successfully completed, Engr. Ndanusa is now authorized for appointment by President Tinubu to serve as a representative of the nation in a foreign mission, joining the Federal Government's diplomatic corps.
