Why Senators Didn’t Grill Wike — Akpabio by EBMedia(op):
The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, has explained why the senators did not grill the immediate past governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, during the ministerial nominees screening.

Akpabio cited Wike’s experiences as a governor and a minister under former President, Goodluck Jonathan.

The former Rivers governor was asked to take a “bow and go” after reading his brief profile and following an appeal by Senator Barinada Mpigi (PDP, Rivers).

Akpabio noted that Wike was not thoroughly grilled because of his records having formerly served as a minister.

He said Wike had appeared before the Senate for screening when he was nominated as a minister by ex-President, Goodluck Jonathan.

“Having been nominated again for a ministerial position, there is no point asking him many questions,” Akpabio said.

You want to grill someone without knowing the ministerial position he is coming to occupy. Is it not when you know the position someone was appointed for before you assess his suitability? We are not serious in this country.

Those who used to brag to call Wike Mr Project have turned their back and saying something else.

Wike they claimed would be relegated after the election has been approved by the Senate as a minister which nothing any baga can do about it

Someone who delivered Rivers to Tinubu can never be grilled.....


Tinubu gave an order for him to bow and pass ....


We're looking at this 10th assembly.... Praying that we don't get to experience another rubber stamp senate president.
