Buhari Will Submit List of Ministers This Week – Senate President

Pat Stevens/

The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, has expressed confidence that President Muhammadu Buhari will submit the list of ministerial nominees for the consideration and approval of the Senate this week.

Lawan stated this at plenary today, while reacting to a point of order raised by  Senator Bassey Akpan to the effect that the delay in the submission of the list could affect the holidays of the senators.

Lawan assured his colleagues that the executive arm of government was working hard to ensure that the list was ready early enough before the senate proceeds on its annual two-month recess.

He also expressed confidence that the nominees would be screened by the upper chamber before the annual vacation which would commence on July 26.
