The Senate and House of Representatives have adjourned plenary sittings till April 16th 2024 to observe the ongoing Ramadan fast, the Easter holidays and the forthcoming Eid celebration.

The Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, who presided over Wednesday’s plenary at the Senate, announced the recess.

Similarly, the Speaker of the House, Rep Tajudeen Abass, announced the recess at the end of Wednesday’s plenary session following a motion for adjournment moved by the Chief Whip of the House, Rep. Bello Kumo (APC, Gombe) and seconded by the Deputy Minority Leader, Rep. Aliyu Madaki (NNPP, Kano).

However, the Speaker did not state the reasons for the recess but it is believed to be similar to the reasons given at the Senate.

The Reps, during plenary proceedings, deliberated and debated on bills and motions while reports were presented.
