Nigeria’s 8th Senate
The Senate on Wednesday adjourned plenary till Tuesday, November
6 following a motion to that effect moved by the Senate Leader,
Senator Ahmad Lawan.
The motion, which was seconded by Senator Emmanuel Bwacha(PDP
Taraba North), will see the upper legislative chamber which resumed
from its over two-month long annual vacation barely a month ago
proceed on break for another two weeks.
Lawan while moving the motion for adjournment of plenary equally
welcomed Senator Osinaka Chukwu(PDP Rivers West) who just defected
to the APC to the ruling party.
Senate President Bukola Saraki, in his remarks, said during the
two-week recess of the Senate, the relevant committees will meet
with a view to carrying out oversight functions especially on the
implementation of the 2018 federal budget and the recently approved
external loan (Eurobond) .
