The President of the 10th Senate, Godswill Akpabio, on Monday, rushed to the Presidential Villa minutes after a rowdy session at the Senate over the screening of a ministerial nominee, Festus Keyamo.

He was spotted at the villa at about 2:55PM Monday afternoon after the outrage that greeted the ex-minister’s screening at the Red Chamber.

This followed a constitutional point of order and motion moved by Senator Darlington Nwokocha (LP – Abia Central) where he called for the screening of Keyamo to be stood down over his past attitude towards the National Assembly when he was Minister.

Nwokocha explained that Keyamo had refused to appear before committees of the National Assembly to explain how N52billion allocated for 774,000 Public Works Programme of the Federal Government was utilised and how the beneficiaries were selected when he was Minister of State for Labour and Employment.
