HOUSE OF SENATE FINALLY CONFIRMS FORMER MINISTER MUSILIU OBANIKORO AS A RETURNEE MINISTER

Despite the warnings from various quarters including the opposition party, the APC about not confirming the former minister of state for defence to return as a minister based on the Ekiti state governorship election rigging audio being circulated online, the Nigerian house of senate still went ahead to confirm him during the house plenary session on Tuesday, March 10, 2015.

Mr Obanikoro was named in a leaked tape as a principal actor in the 2014 Ekiti state rigging saga which has sparked off national outrage and the Nigerian government has refused to investigate the claims.

The APC lawmakers responded by walking out of the session in protest.
