The Nigerian senate has commenced the screening of the acting Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Olukayode Ariwoola.
The motion for the screening was moved by the Senate Leader, Senator Ibrahim Gobir, at the plenary at 11:35am on Wednesday.
The Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, had called for the screening exercise to be moved forward from where it was listed on the order paper.
Gobir moved that the Senate should resort into the Committee of the Whole to conduct the screening as well as suspend its relevant rules to admit the acting CJN Ariwoola and his entourage into the chambers.
