Breaking: After five hours of screening, Senate confirms Bianca Ojukwu, six others as ministers

The Senate on Wednesday screened and confirmed the nominations of Ambassador Bianca Odinaka Odumegu-Ojukwu, the late Odumegwu Ojukwu’s widow, and six others as ministers.

Others are Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda, Muhammadu Maigari Dingyadi, Rt. Hon. Yusuf Abdullahi Ata, Idi Mukhtar Maiha, Dr. Jumoke Oduwole, and Dr. Suwaiba Said Ahmad.

The party’s mother, Bianca Ojukwu, whose husband founded the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), is the only one with a foothold in the Southeast of the nation.

The nation’s Upper Chamber confirmed the nominees barely five hours after the screening.
