The list was presented to the Senate President, Bukola Saraki by President Buhari’s Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari, accompanied by Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Matters (Senate), Ita Enang.
It was delivered to him around 5pm on Wednesday at his office in Abuja, with Saraki, saying that “I can now confirm that I just received the list of ministerial nominees”.
