Senate President Bukola Saraki on Thursday, reshuffled the leaderships of the Senate’s committees.
The move was reportedly done to return peace to the troubled Red Chamber.
Kabiru Marafa, Saraki’s most outspoken critic, was appointed Chairman of the Petroleum (downstream) committee.
Also, Oluremi Tinubu, a key member of the anti-Saraki Unity Forum, was named chairperson of the Committee on Environment.
Senator Suleiman Hukunyi is now Chairman of the Committee on National Identity.
These lawmakers were all outspoken critics of the Saraki-led Senate.
Saraki made the announcement shortly before the Senate adjourned today’s plenary session.
