Akpabio, who presided over the screening of some of the ministerial nominees, read the names of the new nominees in the second list submitted to the plenary by the President Bola Tinubu.

To allow Gbajiabiamila to present the list, the Senate invoked its Order 12(i) to allow the former speaker enter the chamber at 3.15pm.
