Senator Nwokocha Moves Motion for Suspension of Festus Keyamo's Ministerial Screening
During a Senate plenary session today, Senator Darling Nwokocha created a stir by calling for the suspension of the screening of Festus Keyamo, a MINISTERIAL nominee from Delta State.
Senator Nwokocha, representing Abia Central Senatorial District, moved the motion for the suspension of the former Minister of State for Labour and Employment. His motion was seconded by Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, representing Abia-South Senatorial District.
In response, Senate President Godswill Akpabio subjected the motion to a voice vote, but the lawmakers were divided in their opinion on the matter. This has led to a rowdy session in the Senate.
As of now, the Senate is in a closed-door session to deliberate on the motion. The motion was prompted by Keyamo's previous refusal to honor summons from the 9th National Assembly during the last administration.
The situation remains fluid, and more information will be provided as developments unfold.
