The Senate, Wednesday, okayed Senator Musiliu Obanikoro’s second coming as minister.
Opposition from All Progressives Congress, APC, Senators and few members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, last week stalled screening of the former Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, for ministerial appointment.
The APC Senators had protested the inclusion of Obanikoro following his alleged role in the Ekiti election and had even insinuated that in some other climes, President Jonathan should have resigned.
But today while the opposition staged a walkout, the Senators followed the tradition of the Senate where a former Senator would be asked to take a bow and leave without being asked questions.
