Bola Ahmed Tinubu President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has made changes to the names of nineteen ministerial nominees submitted to the National Assembly, few days ago.
President Bola Tinubu had on Wednesday transmitted names of an additional 19 names to the National Assembly for considerations as Ministers of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Recall that Mr. President had previously sent names of about 28 Ministerial Nominees to the house for confirmation.
