The Senate has confirmed the nomination of former Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, General Christopher Musa, as Minister of Defence.

General Musa, the immediate past CDS, was confirmed after the screening at the Senate chambers, a day after President Bola Tinubu nominated him for the position.

His screening comes amid the heels of heightened insecurity in Nigeria, with mass abductions, especially in schools, becoming commonplace.

On his part, General Musa says his first move is to probe the alleged withdrawal of the troops, insisting that the military is not known for cowardice.
