In a statement, a politician stated that Wike is the best in Rivers State.
GodsWill Akpabio, the Senate President, then directed him to take a bow and depart.
In response, Rufai expressed his displeasure with the move in a tweet, claiming that the ministerial screening resembled a scene from the stage play of renowned actor Moses Olaiya, widely known as Baba Sala.
He tweeted, “Over 5m people are with a nominee, take a bow. Here we go again. Our screening is a bloody daylight joke. Our ministerial screening looks like a scene from Baba Sala!, probably a scene from Baba kwete oni le goolu.
