THE Senate has confirmed Dr. Bernard Doro as a minister in a brief screening session that lasted less than 30 minutes on Thursday.
Doro, who becomes the third ministerial nominee from Plateau State in the present government, used the opportunity to outline his vision for fostering an inclusive humanitarian ecosystem in the country.
According to him, a humanitarian ecosystem that is inclusive, guided by impartiality and independence is needed.
After throwing a few questions at him, Senators expressed satisfaction with his credentials and capacity to serve and subsequently asked him to “take a bow and leave.”
Persecondnews reports that President Bola Tinubu had last week written the Senate, seeking the screening and confirmation of Doro from Plateau State as a minister.
Doro’s nomination followed Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda’s appointment as the All Progressives Congress (APC) national chairman in July.
Yilwatda had previously served as Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Reduction.
