The incumbent senator, Prof. Nora Dadu’ut, is said to have decided not to run for the position come 2023, paving the way for the minister to throw her hat into the ring.
Tallen’s entry into the race swells the number of President Muhammadu Buhari’s cabinet members who are eyeing different positions in 2023.
