Why I Slumped During Ministerial Screening – Balarabe

Published on

The newly confirmed minister, Abbas Balarabe, says he slumped during his screening at the senate due to

exhaustion.

Speaking with newsmen, the minister-designate said he got the news of his nomination on Tuesday and

had stayed up all night preparing for his ‘big day’.

According Balarabe: “It is basically exhaustion. I got the news of my nomination yesterday and I had to come from Kaduna.

“There were so many things to do which I attended to throughout the night.

“What happened today is as a result of pure exhaustion.

“I want to thank the Senate for their understanding particularly the senators from my State (Kaduna) who

have all gathered around me since yesterday and the medical team who took care of me.

“I am alright now, nothing is wrong with me. What I experienced was pure exhaustion which can happen to

anybody.”
