The Senate has approved the appointment of Bernard Doro as a minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria after a brief screening session that lasted under 30 minutes.

Doro, the third ministerial nominee from Plateau State, used the occasion to present his vision for building an inclusive and effective humanitarian ecosystem across the country.

He promised to create a humanitarian ecosystem that is inclusive, guided by impartiality and independence.

During his appearance before lawmakers, Doro pledged to enhance coordination among security agencies to more effectively identify and support individuals affected by crises, a task he acknowledged remains a persistent challenge.

He believes technology can play a vital role in achieving this.

After a brief round of questioning, the senators voiced satisfaction with his qualifications and readiness to serve.

The lawmakers subsequently asked him to take a bow and leave.

President Bola Tinubu appointed Doro as a minister last week following the resignation of Nentawe Yilwatda who is from Plateau State.
