A source told Vanguard that instead of thirty – six names, President Buhari sent twenty – one names as Ministerial nominees to the Senate President, with plans to send others very early on Tuesday before plenary session.Senate President Saraki received the long awaited ministerial list from the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari at 4.59 pm. The Chief of Staff to the President was accompanied to Saraki’s office by the Special Adviser to the President on National Assembly Matters, Senator Ita Enang.
There was a new twist to the submission of Ministerial list to the Senate as it was received directly by the Senate President and brought by the Chief of Staff to the President as against the tradition where the office of the Senate President through the registry receives it from the Special Adviser to the President on National Assembly Matter( Senate).
Following tradition of @NGRSenate envelope containing #Thelist of Ministerial nominees will remain sealed till plenary on Tuesday.
