The senate may re-invite the three ministerial nominees, including Nasir El-Rufai, who have not been confirmed yet for re-screening, the Senate spokesperson, Yemi Adaramodu has said.
Adaramodu made this disclosure on Channels Television’s breakfast programme, Sunrise Daily.
The Senate stepped down the confirmation of former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, Delta State nominee, Stella Okotete and Taraba State nominee, Abubakar Danladi, over issues relating to security.
When asked whether the Senate would still confirm them, Adaramodu responded: “The question raised about them is an ongoing issue.
“So, once the Senate is satisfied, definitely, if we need to invite them to the chamber for the re-confirmation and re-screening, then we’ll do that.
“If security is not satisfied, the Senate cannot be satisfied. It depends on what security agencies and the person that nominates them say.”
Videonaija recalls Monday the approval and confirmation of 45 ministerial nominees of President Bola Tinubu after a voice vote.
However, the lawmakers put in view the confirmation of El-Rufai and two others until they are cleared via a security report.
