The Nigerian Senate, has asked the former Minister of Labour and Employment, Mr Festus Keyamo to take a bow after he apologised to the hallowed chamber over his disrespectful attitude to the 9th Senate.

There was a slight frenzy in the Senate on Monday during the screening of Festus Keyamo SAN for appointment as Minister.

Senator Darlington Nwokocha, member representing Abia Central Senatorial District moved a motion for the suspension of Keyamo who is from Delta State.

Nwokocha accused Keyamo of disrespecting the 9th National Assembly and levelling allegations of corruption against the previous administration.

Nwokocha claimed that Keyamo was summoned to clarify matters pertaining to a Special Public Works programme during that time but failed to honor the invitation.

But the Senate went into an executive session after the rowdy screening exercise to deliberate on the matter.

When it reconvened, a sober Keyamo apologised, saying he regretted his actions.

He was however, asked to take a bow and go after the apology.
