The newly appointed service heads will be screened by the House of Representatives today.
The screening will most likely take place behind closed doors.
President Bola Tinubu named Maj. Gen. Christopher Musa as Chief of Defence Staff, Maj. Gen. Taoreed Lagbaja as Chief of Army Staff, Rear Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla as Chief of Naval Staff, and AVM Hassan Abubakar as Chief of Air Staff.
The session would follow the Senate’s Thursday screening and confirmation of the service chiefs’ nomination.
Senate President Godswill Akpabio said, during the closed-door session, the service chiefs answered questions on defence-related matters and topical issues.
The President had in a letter read on Monday on the floor of the Senate requested that the red chamber confirm the service chiefs.
The Senate, upon resumption of plenary on Thursday, started the screening of the service chiefs, with each of them mounting the podium to speak on how they would tackle insecurity in the country if confirmed.
