Ministerial nominee, Festus Keyamo vowed that he would do everything possible to justify the trust and confidence reposed in him by President Bola Tinubu.
While expressing his appreciation to the Senate, the former Minister of State for Employment, Labour and Productivity also promised that he would not disappoint the lawmakers.
He made this pledge while fielding questions from journalists in Abuja after his screening.
Keyamo said: “I thank the Senate for their magnanimous consideration, and I also want to thank Mr. President for his complete benevolence in giving me this rare opportunity to serve this nation.
“I can not thank him enough. I want to make it clear that I will not disappoint Mr. President; I will not disappoint the Senate; I promise, I will not.
“In the bid and passion for both the executive and the legislature, to bring dividends of democracy to Nigerians and to ensure that Nigerians have the benefits of government programmes, perhaps some compromises are needed at all times other than the strict adherence to legality.
“Compromises are needed here and there for the purpose of bringing succour to Nigerians. Because when people hold to their sides because of legality, at times, it is Nigerians that suffer for it.
“I want to thank the Senate; I want to thank the Senate President and all the distinguished Senators for their magnanimity.”
