According to the Chairman of the senate Adhoc committee on media and
publicity, Dino Melaye, the Senate decided to reduce to names of
ministerial nominees for screening today to three so as to make the
screening exercise more thorough
"The reason why we reduced the number of nominees is because we
responded to the agitations and yearnings and the aspirations of
Nigerians. We have monitored the reactions of Nigerians on the issue of
the ministerial screening and we found out that Nigerians believed that
weare rushing the process and it was not as thorough as they would
desire. We have agreed that we reduce to three or four per day so that
the interaction and screening exercise will be more thorough and
Nigerians will appreciate who is going to be their minister" he said
