Breaking: Senate begins screening of 7 new ministerial nominees

The Senate has commenced the screening of seven ministerial nominees recently appointed by President Bola Tinubu.

The screening exercise is taking place at the Senate’s red chamber, following a postponement from the initially scheduled session on Tuesday.

The nominees were named by President Tinubu last Wednesday, and their assessment is a critical step in confirming their suitability for ministerial roles. The Senate’s decision to delay the screening by a day was aimed at ensuring a thorough review process for each candidate.

This screening marks the next phase in Tinubu’s ongoing efforts to shape his cabinet and push forward with his administration’s policy agenda.
