Abubakar takes over at ICPC

Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Off ences Commission (ICPC) has a new Secretary to the Commission in the person of Dr. Musa Usman Abubakar. In a brief ceremony which was witnessed by the heads of departments and other senior management staff , the former acting Chairman of the Commission, Alhaji Bako Abdullahi, said he was handing over to the secretary as his tenure as a member had come to an end.
This was contained in a statement issued yesterday in Abuja by the Commission’s spokesperson, Mrs. Rasheedat A. Okoduwa. Abdullahi commended the management and staff of the Commission for the support he had received from them, saying it was tremendous, and urged them to extend the same to the new man.
In his response, the secretary eulogised the out-gone Chairman, saying the task of running a strategic organisation like ICPC was an onerous one, and that having worked directly with Abdullahi, he could attest to the awesome responsibility it entails and how diligently the out-gone Chairman had discharged his duties. Abubakar, therefore, solicited for staff cooperation, saying it was needed if he was to succeed in carrying the heavy burden being placed on his shoulders.
