Senate President Godswill Akpabio has explained why former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike was asked to take a bow and go during his screening for the position of minister.
Senator Akpabio during the screening proceedings said Wike was not thoroughly grilled because the Senate had his records, having formerly served as a minister.

He said Wike had appeared before the Senate for screening when he was nominated as a minister by ex-President Goodluck Jonathan.
“Having been nominated again for a ministerial position, there is no point asking him much questions,” Akpabio said.
