The Senate has confirmed Bernard Doro as a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria following a brief screening session that lasted less than 30 minutes on Thursday.
Doro, who becomes the third ministerial nominee from Plateau State, used the opportunity to outline his plans for fostering an inclusive and impartial humanitarian ecosystem in the country.
He pledged to enhance coordination among security agencies to ensure targeted support for individuals and communities affected by crises, noting that synergy has often been a challenge in humanitarian response.
Following his presentation and responses, senators expressed satisfaction with his credentials and unanimously asked him to “take a bow and leave.”
The President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, congratulated Doro on his confirmation and urged him to discharge his duties with diligence and responsibility, aligning his efforts with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
Akpabio emphasized that Nigerians expect transparency, accountability, and results-driven leadership from all ministers, especially those at the forefront of policy execution.
President Tinubu had nominated Doro last week to replace Nentawe Yilwatda, who resigned as minister representing Plateau State.
