If the views of some senators can be used as thermometres, then
tomorrow's (Tuesday, October 6) Senate sitting will be interesting.
Senator Mao Ohuabunwa, PDP, Abia
North; and Chairman, Senate ad hoc Committee on Publicity, Senator Dino Melaye,
APC, Kogi West, have said a few things that must be taken seriously.
First, they said if President
Muhammadu Buhari wants to be Minister of Petroleum then, in accordance with the
constitution, he must come before the Senate for screening.
Again, nominees that are senators
will no longer enjoy the take-a-bow-and-go courtesy. They will be screened.
Furthermore, any allegation of
corruption against any nominee will be referred to EFCC/ICPC, adding that
Senate President Bukola Saraki’s trial will not cow them.
Recall that the list of nominees,
submitted by President Buhari to Saraki, will be attended to on the floor of
the Senate tomorrow.
Let’s see how the masquerades
dance.
