The Senate is set to screen the ministerial nominees submitted by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu today, following their clearance by the Department of State Services (DSS).
This screening comes after President Tinubu’s recent cabinet reshuffle, which involved the dismissal of six ministers and the appointment of seven new nominees. Additionally, ten ministers had their portfolios swapped.
