The senate has commenced screening of 14 of President Bola Tinubu’s ministerial nominees.
The process commenced on Monday after David Umahi, deputy majority leader, moved a motion to that effect.
14 nominees, including Nyesom Wike, immediate past governor of Rivers, were screened on Monday.
Last week, the president sent a list of 28 ministerial nominees to the senate for confirmation.
