Recall that Tijani, CEO and co-founder of CcHub, appeared before the senate for screening as a minister last Saturday.

,,,Tijani was grilled by lawmakers on his past tweets which were deemed disparaging and contemptuous of the Nigerian state and passport, and the senate as an institution.

The minister-designate thereafter apologised profusely to the….senators for describing them as “morons” in 2021.

…..He said, “Distinguished senators, I was raised properly as a Yoruba boy both in Agege and Abeokuta. I do understand that we are not meant to disrespect our elders and that is not the training we were given.

“My father won’t be proud of me for all these allegations.

“So I want to profusely apologise to everyone in this hall, including anyone, anywhere in Nigeria that may have been offended by everything I said.”

,,,,,Tijani was among 45 of the president’s 48 ministerial nominees cleared and confirmed by the Senate this week.
