Akpabio explains why Wike was asked to take a ‘bow and go’ during ministerial screening

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has explained why former Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, was not grilled when he appeared before the Senate for screening as a ministerial nominee.

After his profile was read out on the floor of the senate, Wike was asked to take a ‘bow and go’. 

Explaining reason behind this, Akpabio stated that the Senate had his records as he had served as a minister in Goodluck Jonathan’s administration.

“Having been nominated again for a ministerial position, there is no point asking him much questions.”
