Senate President Godswill Akpabio made this known during plenary on Friday following a letter from the president.
Tinubu also nominated a former spokesperson for his presidential campaign, Festus Keyamo.
Keyamo had come under intense social media taunt following the earlier list that didn’t have his name.
