President Muhammadu Buhari has nominated Mr Muazu Sambo from Taraba State as a minister-designate, having written to the Senate to seek his confirmation.

The ministerial nominee would likely be replacing either the Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, also from Taraba State or the Minister of Agriculture, Sambo Nanono, who were both sacked in September by the president as part of the re-engineering efforts of the cabinet.
