Osinbajo to swear-in new ministers tomorrow (Wednesday)

A report by Daily Trust indicates that Acting President Yemi Osinbajo will tomorrow swear in the two ministers-designate, Stephen Ocheni (Kogi) and Suleiman Hassan (Gombe) after about three months delay.

The report quoted sources in the presidency saying that all is set for the duo’s inauguration on Wednesday, July 26.

Ocheni and Hassan’s nominations were confirmed by the Senate about three months ago and they have had to wait as President Muhammadu Buhari has been away on medical vacation.

Ocheni is to replace the late former minister of state for labour, James Ocholi; while Hassan is to replace Amina Mohammed who resigned as minister of environment to become the United Nations Deputy Secretary-General.
