The nomination of Lamido Yuguda as the Director-General (DG) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been approved by the Senate<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the Senate confirmed Yuguda as SEC DG, it also confirmed Reginald C. Karausa, Ibrahim D. Boyi, and Obi Joseph as full-time commissioners of the commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was announced in a statement, Ezrel Tabiowo, the special assistant on press to Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, released on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said the confirmation of the nominees came after the Senate considered the report of its Committee on Capital Market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In its report, the committee headed by Senator Ibikunle Amosun, recommended that the Senate \u201cconfirms the four nominees as appointed by Mr President, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to the Board of the Securities and Exchange Commission\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his speech after the confirmation of the nominees Lawan said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Security and Exchange Commission must be efficient and effective in ensuring that we are able to attract and sustain not only domestic investment but foreign direct investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPeople should bring their monies and feel safe with their investments here. This is essential to create a very enabling climate for investors to be attracted and retained here in the country.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
