A ministerial nominee from Kaduna State, Abbas Balarabe, on Wednesday afternoon, collapsed during his screening by the Senate in the Committee of the Whole.
Balarabe had shortly finished reading a brief background information about himself and the Senate also suspended its rules to allow its sitting beyond 2pm, when the incident happened.
There was no clear picture of what actually transpired or what led to the incident as the Senate immediately went into a closed-door session.
