- The Nigerian Senate resumed plenary on Tuesday with Senate President Godswill Akpabio presiding, as lawmakers marked the return of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan after a six-month suspension and some senators showed solidarity with Palestine.
The Senate resumed plenary on Tuesday after a 10-week recess, with Senate President Godswill Akpabio presiding over the session.
A notable development at Tuesday’s plenary was the return of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, who represents Kogi Central. She appeared at a Senate plenary for the first time since serving a six-month suspension.
In a show of international solidarity, some senators arrived at the chamber dressed in Palestinian colours and attire, advocating for a free Palestine.
Senator Akpabio delivered a charge in his opening address, urging lawmakers to recommit themselves to accountability, discipline and purposeful governance.
Addressing his colleagues in the red chamber, Senator Akpabio reaffirmed the Senate’s responsibility to the Nigerian people, stating that “To the citizens of Nigeria, we hear you. You asked us not for excuses, but for results. We will remain accountable and responsive.”
