The 10th Senate under the Leadership of Goodwill Akpabio has again altered its legislative calendar, shifting the resumption of plenary sitting to October from September 23.
The development was conveyed in an internal memo signed by the Chief of Staff to the Senate President, Chinedu Akubueze, and made available to Press today.
The shift in date has raised eyebrows within the National Assembly as it extends the chamber’s annual recess by another two weeks.
Meanwhile no official reason was given, sources told our correspondent that the delay was intended to allow lawmakers to fully observe the Independence Day celebrations on October 1.
In the memo titled “Notice of Shift in Plenary Resumption Date,” Akubueze also apologised to the senators for the belated information.
