The House of Representatives has postponed plenary session indefinitely due to the ongoing renovation of the chambers of the National Assembly.
The green chamber was supposed to resume plenary on Tuesday after the one week Easter break, but in a statement released on Monday, the acting Clerk of the House of Representatives, Yahaya Danzariya, said the resumption has been postponed to a date yet to be decided.
Danzariya cited the ongoing renovation and the need for committees to conclude work on their reports as the reasons for the postponement.
“This is to inform all Honorable Members and other legislative Staff that the @HouseNGR Plenary earlier scheduled for Tuesday, 26th April, 2022 will no longer hold.”
“This is due to the early commencement of renovations in the Chambers and extension of time for Committees to file in their outstanding reports. A new date will be communicated in due course. All inconveniences are sincerely regretted,” the statement posted on Twitter reads.”
This may turn out to be a long break as there will be public holidays for the Eid Fitr celebration to mark the end of Ramadan.
