The President may submit the list of ministerial nominees for consideration and approval before the end of the week.
President of the Senate, Senator Ahmed Lawan, said this during Wednesday’s plenary in the Upper Chamber of the National Assembly in Abuja.
He was responding to a point of order by Senator Bassey Akpan who represents Akwa Ibom North-East senatorial district.
Senator Akpan had reminded the senators of their long recess coming up and the need for President Muhammadu Buhari to constitute a cabinet.
In his response, the Senate President told the lawmakers that the Executive Arm was working to ensure that the list was ready before they proceed on their annual two-month break.
