President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has nominated former Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr Festus Keyamo as minister.

The letter was read on the floor of the Senate at Friday’s Plenary Session.

President Tinubu says his decision is in line with the provisions of section 147(2) of the 1999 Constitution as Amended.
