Newly confirmed ministerial nominee Abbas Balarabe, has explained what led to he slumping during his screening at the senate.
The Minister-designate while speaking to newsmen said he slumped due to exhaustion.
Balarabe said he got the news of his nomination on Tuesday and had stayed up all night preparing for his ‘big day’.
“It is basically exhaustion. I got the news of my nomination yesterday and I had to come from Kaduna”, he said.
“There were so many things to do which I attended to throughout the night.
“What happened today is as a result of pure exhaustion.
“I want to thank the Senate for their understanding particularly the senators from my State (Kaduna) who have all gathered around me since yesterday and the medical team who took care of me.
“I am alright now, nothing is wrong with me. What I experienced was pure exhaustion which can happen to anybody.”
