The Senate will today screen the four ministerial nominees whose names were sent to the lawmakers shortly before they embarked on recess in June.

President Goodluck Jonathan had in June nominated former Governor Ibrahim Shekarau (Kano), Prince Adedayo Adeyeye (Ekiti), Dr Stephen Orhu (Delta) and Dr Abdul Bulama (Yobe) for appointment as ministers.

The Senate confirmed that the screening would take place today, following a motion by Deputy Leader, Senator Abduk Ningi.

Meanwhile, the President of the Senate, Senator David Mark, said the late Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero, preached against activities of the dreaded Boko Haram sect while he was alive.

Mark, who stated this during a motion in honour of the late Emir said that the Kate monarch was a peace loving leader.

The motion in honour of the late monarch was moved by Senators Hayatu Gwarzo, Basheer Mohammed and Kabiru Gaya.

Mark described the deceased as a fortright, strict, discipline and fearless traditional ruler whose frank and candid comments on crucial issues were usually respected.

Mark said: “The late Emir will not say or do anything he never believed in. For instance, when I visited in Kano, few years back, on the Boko Haram issue, the late Emir frankly submitted that Boko Haram will not do anything good for this country.”
