The National Assembly Service Commission has appointed
Kamoru Ogunlana as clerk of the national assembly.
Ahmed Amshi, chair of the commission, said Ogunlana will
oversee the affairs of the clerk of the national assembly, as Magaji Tambuwal,
the outgoing clerk, proceeds on pre-retirement leave.
“As you proceed on your pre-retirement leave, Mr Kamoru
Ogunlana will oversee the affairs of the Office of the Clerk to the National
Assembly, while working closely with you to ensure smooth transition until he
takes over from you as the Substantive Clerk to the National Assembly on
02/02/2025,” the letter reads.
Until his appointment, Ogunlana was the deputy clerk of the
national assembly.
Tambuwal, who was named as clerk in November 2022, succeeded
Olatunde Ojo.
His appointment stirred controversy at the time, as he was
not the most senior official in the national assembly management.
Chinedu Akubueze, clerk of the senate, was said to be the
most senior official when Tambuwal was appointed.
