Is Rt. Hon. Amaechi Qualified As A Minister According To The Constitution? by gold15(op): 1:59pm On Oct 15, 2015
Section 66 (1) (h) states thus: “No person shall be qualified
for election to the Senate or the House of Representatives if
he has been indicted for embezzlement or fraud by a
Judicial Commission of Inquiry or a Tribunal set up under
the Tribunal of Inquiry Act or a Tribunal of Inquiry Law or
any law by the Federal Republic of Nigeria or State
Government which indictment has been accepted by the
Federal or State Government respectively”.
Furthermore, Section 147 (5) states thus: “No person shall
be appointed as a Minister of the Federal Republic of
Nigeria unless he is qualified for election as a member of
the House of Representatives”.
Suffice it to hold that Section 147 (5) as spelt out above
unequivocally states that what qualifies or disqualifies a
member of the House of Representatives applies to a
Ministerial Nominee, for which former governor Chibuike
Amaechi is one.

Did you comment on the nomination of Obanikoro, Madueke and Jelili Adesiyan? If not, your post is rubbish.
