The Senate has finally okayed Senator Musiliu Obanikoro as minister after two previous botched attempts.
Meaning the screening was not without a drama of sort. Opposition from All Progressives Congress, APC, Senators staged a walk out.
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.
In line with the tradition of the Senate, Obanikoro was asked to take a bow and leave without being asked any questions.
