Chairman, Senate Ad-hoc Committee on Media
and Publicity, Dino Melaye, stated on Thursday, that the Senate will not
discuss the petitions against the ministerial confirmation of Rotimi Amaechi.
Melaye assured that the former governor of
Rivers state, would be screened with eight other nominees next week Tuesday,
when the Senate reconvenes.
He said: The committee has a one-line
report that the matter is in court and that in compliance with our laid down
rules and regulations, any case that is undergoing judicial remedy cannot be
discussed. We cannot look into it. Rotimi Amaechi has no problem.
“We have distanced ourselves from it and
the report will be presented on Tuesday by the grace of God. I assure Nigerians
that former Governor Rotimi Amaechi, by the grace of God, will be screened on
Tuesday.”
“We are going to screen nine of them on
Tuesday and the remaining nine would be taken on Wednesday. The confirmation of
all the nominees would be taken on Wednesday.”
