All the nominees appeared before the House and they were made to state their background as well as professional and political experiences.
Commenting during the confirmation, Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa urged the nominees to take a cue from the way they were commended by the lawmakers, who ought to ask them questions.
