The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Yakubu Dogara, monday held a closed-door meeting with six out of the ministerial nominees yet-to-be screened by the Senate.
The nominees he met with in his office were Senator Heineken Lokpobiri (Bayelsa), Gen Mansur Dan Ali (Zamfara), Mrs. Aisha Abubakar (Sokoto), Hon. Khadijah Bukar Ibrahim (Yobe) and Mrs. Zainab Ahmed (Kaduna) and Mr. Muhammad Bello (Adamawa).
Details of the meeting were sketchy, but all the nominees, with the exception of Dan Ali, are facing opposition from different groups over their nomination.
Hon. Bukar Ibrahim is currently a member of the House of Representatives.
They are expected to be screened this week, as the exercise continues in the Senate tuesday.
