Former governor of Cross River, Donald Duke, has called for the addition of portfolios for the effective screening of ministerial nominees.

Mr Duke told newsmen on Tuesday that the screening of ministerial nominees without portfolios shows the country’s unwillingness to ‘get things right’.

A former Minister of Works, Adeseye Ogunlewe, also called for enactment of a law to compel attachment of portfolios to ministerial nominees presented to the Senate for screening, Igbere TV reports.

Ogunlewe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), said that the law if enacted, would ensure that nominees were subjected to better screening by the Senate.

“As far as I am concerned, the Senate has done what it is supposed to do. We saw improvements on the Day Four and Day Five,” he said.

“They (senators) listened to complaints of the people and decided to ask questions, but the questions were of general applications; they were not about specific portfolios.

“There is the need for the country to have a law that will compel any administration to attach portfolios to ministerial nominees.”

Ogunlewe also said he had no grouse with the ‘take a bow’ privilege given to some nominees, adding that it is the tradition of the Senate to give special privileges to nominees who used to be lawmakers.

Buhari doesnt know the roles they are expecte to play, all he knows is just to appoint Ministers because the constitution mandates him to do so, after the screening he will do tinini tanana, mini mini mani mo, tunbom tunbom to give them portfolio

The party in power would be forced to nominate competent persons, not one "iti boribo" for the mere fact he/she is a party member.

Buhari and those screening, should be wise enough to know......

How would Buhari feel, if after the last election..... What he won, was to be the President of NURTW...... Clueless bunch of political class.......

What's the essence of this screening? Is it just to come and "Take a bow and go?"


The day we will scrap Senate will be the day Nigeria will start developing. FG is finding it difficult to pay 30k minimum wage, and yet have paid millions to Legislators as welcome package.

When we are ready, we ALL will demand for better governance. For now, let's be foo.ling ourselves

Correct.

What are you screening them for, if even they have no idea of which their duty post will be?

Nigeria needs cleansing. I don't think some Nigerians know how important ministry are. if we can get the right people as ministers we won't have to care much about buhari. when Dino ask keyamo to state common 2 stanza of our national anthem people where bashing him, common cleaner job in this country you will recite tire for your employer, but no issue because in Nigeria we are not equal.

Donald Duke is irrelevant in Nigeria. he should go and sit down as PDP's 16 years of looting and corruption is over. Sai Baba has taken Nigerians to a greater level.

It can only happen under a cow rearer govermnent where ministers are screened without knowing what job they are being screened for

I beg to differ sir, Federal cabinet members shouldnt be a Ministry based apointment with the exception of the Office of the Antoney General of the federation, this is why cabinet reshuffle are done periodically in other climes, because a minister is a very powerful member of the FEC

A ministry already has a professional head in the person of the Permanent Sec, while a Minister is a temporary Political head.
