President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the appointment of Elias Nwalem Mbam as substantive Chairman for the Revenue Mobilization, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC).
Mbam who hails from Ebonyi state is the immediate past chairman of the commission. He exited the office in November last year after the expiration of his first five years tenure. He handed over the reins to the commission’s Secretary Illiya D. Wannapa who has been acting.
The President also approved the appointment of Marilyn Amobi as the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian Bulk Electricity Trading Company (NBET).
According to a statement issued in Abuja, by the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, signed by the Director of Press, Bolaji Adebiyi, Amobi’s appointment is for a tenure of four years.
Mbam was appointed by former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2010 alongside 20 other members of the commission.
Amobi takes over from Waziri Bintube who was appointed in acting capacity after the exit of Rumundaka Wonodi whose tenure expired in June.
