Buhari is not the first president to become Minister of Petroleum.

Buhari, who took office at the end of May, has said he needed time to ensure his ministers are free of the corruption that is endemic in this West African nation. Expectedly, there would be the tendency for a few hawkish advisers to contend that the president does not owe Nigerians such detailed explanation, but such people would be misguiding PMB because the ultimate objective of any good politician is to carry the populace along in his policies and programmes.

The Chairman Senate Ad Hoc Committee on Media and Publicity Senator Dino Melaye has confirmed that the senate is yet to receive the ministerial list.

Nigeria is struggling with an unprecedented economic crisis due to a plunge in oil revenues undermining the state’s ability to provide even basic services, Senate President Bukola Saraki said on Tuesday.

“Some states like Lagos and Ekiti have three candidates each and only one of them can become minister“.

As Marafa was still shouting, the Senate President ruled him out of order but this did not stop him as he raised his voice, lampooning the Senate and before long a rowdy session ensued.

The final decision, it was learnt, will be taken in the Presidential Villa.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s Chief of Staff, Alhaji Abba Kyari, has submitted the much awaited ministerial list to the National Assembly for deliberations.
