The Senate on Wednesday confirmed the Kaduna State ministerial nominee, Balarabe Abbas, who slumped during screening.
The Nominee slumped a few minutes after making his presentation to the lawmakers and was about to take questions from them.
Following this, the President of the Senate immediately called for executive session to allow efforts to resuscitate the nominee.
After about thirty minutes in a closed session the Red Chamber reconvened to continue with the screening of the third Nominee, Ayodele Olawande.
Thereafter, the Senate President asked for voice votes, thereafter confirming the three screened ministerial nominees.
