The confirmation of Mohammed, the All Progressives Congress (APC) national Publicity Secretary, was once as dramatic as his screening on Tuesday.
Mohammed’s screening on Tuesday was an exchange of banters between him and the senators. however yesterday, the opposition Peoples Democratic party, (PDP) senators shouted ‘nay’ when Senate President Bukola Saraki called out his title for confirmation. but APC senators rose stoutly in his defense with their ‘yes’ shout.
Eight of the ministers-designate were screened the previous day. The Oyo State nominee, Alhaji Adebayo Shittu, was not screened for lack of time. he's to be screened today
