JUST IN: Senate dissolves into Committee of the Whole

The Senate has dissolved into the Committee of the Whole.

The Committee of the Whole House is a committee of the House on
which all Representatives serve and which meets in the House
Chamber for the consideration of measures from the Union
calendar.

However, it is governed by different rules of procedure than the
House meeting as itself.

In Nigeria, the Joint Conference Committee is normally
constituted when there are differences in a bill passed by both
legislative chambers.

Membership of the Committee is based on equality, usually six
members from each chamber with a senator acting as chairperson.

See the tweet, as posted by the The Nigerian Senate @NGRSenate
on Wednesday:

Senate dissolves into the Committeeof the Whole for the clause
by clause consideration of the report of the Committee on
Judiciary, Human Rights & Legal Matters on the Nigerian Law
Reform Commission Act (Amendment) Bill, 2018 (SB. 26).
