Former justice minister, Abubakar Malami, and spokesman of Buhari 2019 Campaign Organisation, Festus Keyamo, will on Friday be screened by the Senate following their nominations as ministers.
Also to be screened on Friday is Senator Gbemisola Saraki from Kwara, former deputy governor of Plateau state, Paulen Tallen; former minister of state for health, Osagie Ehanire; and former minister of state for aviation, Hadi Sirika.
Others are, as announced by Senate President Ahmed Lawan, Goody Jeddy-Agba (Cross River), Muhammdu Dingyadi (Sokoto) and Suleiman Adamu (Jigawa).
So far 24 of the 43 nominees have gone through the ritual which has been criticised for the upper legislative chamber’s ‘bow and go’ policy.
The Senate said it may seat at the weekend to ensure the clearance of all the nominees.
