El-Rufai and Two Others Fail to Win Confirmation from the Senate; the Senate Explains Why

On Monday, Malam Nasir EL-Rufai, the former governor of Nigeria’s Kaduna State, was denied confirmation by the country’s Senate.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has had 45 out of 48 ministerial nominations confirmed by the Senate.

Senate President Godswill Obot Akpabio made the announcement after the confirmation of all 45 candidates that Nasir El-Rufai and two others have not passed security clearance.

For example, Akpabio stated, “El-Rufai and two others have not been cleared by security checks.”

Malam Nasir El-Rufai (Kaduna), Stella Okotete (Delta), and Danladi Umar (Taraba) are the only governors who have not been confirmed.
