The spokesman of the Senate, Senator Yemi Adaramodu, has said the Senate has cut short its festival recess to attend to some urgent national and constitutional issues.
The Daily Crucible reports that Senate had proceeded on a break to celebrate the Eid-el-Kabir festival and planned to resume on July 2, 2024.
But the Senators said they have cut short the recess and will now sit at plenary tomorrow, Thursday, June 27, 2024.
Adaramodu said the Thursday resumption will be their statutory resumption from the Sallah break.
“Senate has the constitutional power to regulate its sessions and we believe that we could gain one more Legislative days to deal with national and constitutional issues, hence the bringing forward from the initial July 2.
“We hope to deal with issues concerning our further oversight on the Appropriations and clear further the hanging issues of constitutional and electoral concerns,” the Senate spokesman said.
