Ministerial screening: Why Senate Should Ask Nasir El-Rufai To Write Undertaking – Doyin Okupe

Doyin Okupe, who served as the former director general of the Peter Obi presidential campaign, has pleaded with the Senate to order ministerial nominee Nasir El-Rufai to sign an undertaking before being confirmed. El-Rufai should be forced to sign a pledge promising not to criticize religion, according to Okupe.

He encouraged the senate to rethink its choice to remove El-Rufai from the ministerial ranks. Okupe claimed in a tweet that El-Rufai is capable of managing Nigeria’s electricity problem.

“I am not a fan of Mallam El-Rufai, who I consider to be a radical of some sort and who has recently displayed some traits of religious extremism,” says Okupe. Few will, however, contest El-Rufai’s skill and enormous performance capacity.

The Senate may request that he sign an agreement before being confirmed that he won’t discuss or make any comments on religion while serving as a minister.

“Our economy and our real attempts to allete poverty are both dependent on the power ministry. Former Governor El-Rufai is undoubtedly one of those Nigerians who can solve our energy challenges.

Because of various security concerns, the Senate has declined to confirm El-Rufai. He was on President Bola Tinubu’s list of 48 nominees for ministerial positions.
