The ministerial nominees and their ministries are, Dr Nentawe Yilwatda (Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction); Muhammadu Dingyadi (Labour & Employment); Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu (Minister of State Foreign Affairs) and Dr Jumoke Oduwole (Industry, Trade and Investment).
Others are: Idi Mukhtar Maiha (Livestock Development); Yusuf Ata (State, Housing and Urban Development), and Dr. Suwaiba Ahmad (Minister of State Education).
The Senate President Goodwill Akpabio congratulated the ministers-designate and urged them to hit the ground running.
Last week, Tinubu sacked five ministers and asked the senate to confirm these nominees to fill vacant and new portfolios in his cabinet.
