The National Assembly has announced that plenary will resume on Tuesday as scheduled, despite the Independent National Electoral Commission’s compilation of the 2023 election results.

According to ANAEDOONLINE.NG, the Senate adjourned plenary on Wednesday, January 25, for elections.

The Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, announced that the Senate would go on recess to allow lawmakers to fully participate in political party campaigns, returning on Tuesday, February 28.

The Presidential and National Assembly elections were held on Saturday, but the electoral umpire was still busy collating results as of Monday evening.

Although tensions are building across the country, the National Assembly in a memo signed by the Clerk, House of Representatives, Dr. Yahaya Danzaria, received by our correspondent, informed its members and other stakeholders that it would reconvene for legislative duties as earlier scheduled.

The notice reads, “This is to remind all Hon members, media, and the general public that the House will still reconvene plenary tomorrow, Tuesday, 28th February 2023 at 11 am as earlier announced.”

Also, a senator who spoke to our correspondent off the record because he wasn’t authorised to speak to the press on such issues, said they’d resume plenary as they were yet to receive any contradictory notice to the previous agreement.

The senator said, “We haven’t received any contradictory message, so we will resume tomorrow as agreed on the day we adjourned plenary.”
