Arabi’s career trajectory showcases his dedication to public service. Starting as a state counsel to later move to the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Water Resources as a legal officer and personal assistant to the minister in 1990. In May 1993, Arabi moved to the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (OSGF) as a Legal Adviser to the SGF. His appointment as a permanent secretary in the State House in 2015 further demonstrates his competence and credibility. Arabi’s recognition as a recipient of the national award of the Officer of the Order of the Niger (OON) further solidifies his reputation as a deserving candidate for the position.

“Similarly, the appointment of Ahmed Galadima Aminu as the executive secretary of the Petroleum Technology Development Fund is commendable. Aminu’s selection is a testament to President Tinubu’s commitment to appointing individuals based on merit and competence. Aminu’s experience and expertise in the field of petroleum technology development make him a suitable candidate for the position. His appointment reflects President Tinubu’s understanding of the importance of having qualified professionals in key positions to drive the growth and development of the petroleum sector,” it said.

Furthermore, it said the appointment of  Aliyu as the new chairman designate is another commendable decision by President Tinubu.

“Aliyu’s  appointment demonstrates the president’s commitment to combating corruption and promoting transparency in governance. Aliyu’s experience and knowledge in the field of law will undoubtedly contribute to the effectiveness of the ICPC in its fight against corruption,” it added.
