The federal government is set to amend a list of persons nominated for national honours.
The adjustment of the list will be done following concerns over inconsistencies, errors, and the absence of notable names for the awards.
Over the weekend, VOP News reported that a total of 437 persons were nominated by the federal government to receive national honours.
The awards will be presented by President Muhammadu Buhari on October 11, at an event scheduled to hold at the state house in Abuja.
Those listed for the award of commander of the order of the federal republic (CFR) are the late Abba Kyari, former chief of staff; the late Ibrahim Attahiru, former chief of army staff; Monica Dongban-Mensem, president of the court of appeal; Oladayo Amao, chief of air staff, among others.
