The Senate has confirmed the appointment of Captain Musa Nuhu as the Director-General for the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority(NCAA).

The President described Nuhu as a reputable airline pilot and aviation safety expert with over 30 years of cognate work experience in the aviation industry.
The confirmation followed the adoption of the report of the Senator Smart Adeyemi-led Committee on Aviation, which conducted Nuhu’s screening.
Senator Adeyemi in his presentation said that the Committee found that Captain Nuhu “has requisite experience, possesses relevant academic and professional qualifications, and that there was no petition against his nomination.”
“Arising from his wealth of experience in the Aviation Sector, the Committee considers Captain Musa Shuaibu Nuhu, suitable for appointment as Director General, Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA),” Adeyemi said.
His recommendation that the Senate should adopt the report of the Senate Committee on Aviation and confirm Captain Nuhu was approved by the Senate when put to voice vote by Senate President Ahmad Lawan.
