Senate President Godswill Akpabio has given reasons the Senate did not ask Taiwo Oyedele to take a bow and go during his ministerial screening.
Speaking during the screening on Wednesday, Akpabio said
Nigerians who were listening to him were getting more educated.
Akpabio said Oyedele would have a lot of working documents
to study in his office and to know the kind of policies to generate and which
areas to touch.
According to him, such policies would assist Nigeria to put
the economy on the right footing.
“It’s also possible that we could have said, take a bow and
go, but Nigerians out there who are listening to you are getting more
educated,” Akpabio said.
Recall that the Senate on Wednesday confirmed the
appointment of Oyedele as a minister-designate barely 24 hours after President
Bola Tinubu asked the red chamber to screen him.
The President had nominated him as Minister of State for
Finance, replacing Dr Doris Anite-Uzoka.
