The Senate is currently in a closed-door meeting shortly after the start of today’s plenary, likely due to the list of ministerial nominees believed to have been submitted by the Presidency. After addressing the fifth item on the Order Paper, which was petitions, the President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, announced that the Senators should convene in an executive session following the announcement made by Senator Opeyemi Bamidele (APC, Ekiti Central).
The closed-door session commenced at 11:59 am. According to sources, the meeting might be related to the Ministerial Nominees put forward by President Bola Tinubu. The list seems to be causing disagreements among the Senators, prompting the need for this gathering.
Yesterday, the President of the Senate had a lengthy meeting with key stakeholders, which may have involved discussions about the list. The source disclosed that the President of the Senate already has the list, and it could be read after the closed-door meeting or possibly next week, as there will be no plenary tomorrow.
Further details will be provided later.
