Nigeria's Senate confirms 11 out of 12 Ministerial nominees

The Senate on Tuesday confirmed 11 out of 12 ministerial nominees presented by President Goodluck Jonathan for screening and confirmation.
Jonathan on Jan. 21 forwarded 12 names to the Senate for confirmation.
They are: Musiliu Obanikoro, Lagos; Mohammed Wakil, Borno;  Aminu Wali, Kano;  Akon Eyakenyi, Akwa Ibom; Lawrencia Malam, Kaduna; and  Aliu Gusau,  Zamfara.
The others are: Boni Haruna, Adamawa; Khaliru Alhassan, Sokoto; Hadjia Jamilla Salik, Kano; Abduljelil Adesiyan, Osun;  T.W Danagogo, Rivers; and Asabe Ahmed, Niger.
The Senate President, David Mark, said that the screening of Salik, the second nominee from Kano had been deferred to another legislative day, although no reason was given.
While Mark was asking the question as to whether the Osun nominee, Adesiyan should be confirmed, Sen. Olusola Adeyeye (APC-Osun), raised a point of order objecting his nomination.
