BREAKING: Tinubu removes Maryam Shetty, appoints Keyamo as ministerial nominee

President Bola Tinubu has made changes to the list of ministry nominees, as announced by Senate President Godswill Akpabio during Friday’s plenary session of the Senate. The alterations came through a letter from the President, replacing two names in the initial list of nominees sent to the National Assembly for screening and confirmation.

Maryam Shetty, a ministry nominee, has been replaced by Mairiga Mahmud, while Festus Keyamo has been introduced as another nominee in the revised list. The reasons behind these changes have not been disclosed yet.

As the situation continues to evolve, stay tuned for further updates on this matter.
