Nigeria President Muhammadu Buhari (77) has once again appointed a dead man to a senior government post.
The appointee is the late legislator Mr Tobias Chukwuemeka Okwuru whose funeral was in February.
Okwuru had been appointed to the Federal Character Commission but was not available to take up the position due to his death at the age of 59.
This is not the first time Buhari has appointed a dead person after he appointed at least five people who were long dead onto several boards of government entities.
Meanwhile, Buhari’s media aide said that when Okwuru died, the information was not communicated to the Federal government.
