President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has forwarded the nomination of Dr. Zainab Marwa to the Senate for confirmation as a member of the Governing Board of the Niger Delta Development Commission, representing the North East zone.
The nomination was contained in a letter read during plenary by the Senate President, indicating that the appointment complies with the provisions of the NDDC Establishment Act.

Following the reading of the letter, the nomination was referred to the Senate Committee on NDDC for screening and further legislative action.
