ABUJA–PRESIDENT Muhammed Buhari failed to
meet up with his earlier promise of submitting list of
nominees to the Senate before the end of
September. The president had assured that the list
containing the nominees into ministerial offices
would be submitted to the Red Chamber latest by
September 30,for onward screening and possible
confirmation.
But the Senate President, Bukola Saraki,who
announces correspondences from the president at
the beginning of plenary,before the consideration of
any other items in the day’s business, could not
announce any letter from the President
during Tuesday’s session, indicating that there was
no such list at his disposal.
The development prompted the Peoples Democratic
Party, PDP senators, through the Minority Leader,
Godswill Akpabio, to seek clarification. Akpabio,
PDP, Akwa Ibom North West, raised a point of order,
under matter of urgent importance, to find out why
the Senate President had not announced the
president’s letter containing ministerial nominees.
Akpabio,who noted that the nation’s newspapers in
the last couple of weeks, have been awashed with
stories of ministerial appointments by the president,
asked the Senate President why he received the list
from President Buhari and was hiding it from his
colleagues.
As Saraki attempted to answer Akpabio’s question,
Deputy Senate Leader, Ibn Bala Na’Allah, APC, Kebbi
South, raised another point of order, where he
explained that the day was still young, saying since
the day’s session ends by 12:30pm, there was still
the hope that the president would transmit the list
of ministerial nominees to the Upper Chamber
before the close of the session.
He also said since the day ends by 12 midnight,
there was still hope that the list could come before
the time. But the Senate President, who was thrown
the question, could not provide answer, as he over-
ruled Senator Akpabio, asking that the next item in
the day’s agenda be introduced.
