The National Assembly has officially rescheduled the resumption of its plenary sessions from the initially set date of Tuesday, April 29, 2025, to Tuesday, May 6, 2025. This decision was conveyed through a formal notice signed by the Clerk to the National Assembly, Kamoru Ogunlana.
According to the statement, the shift was necessitated by the need to enable lawmakers to actively participate in the upcoming Workers’ Day celebrations and attend to vital constituency responsibilities. The notice emphasized the importance of these engagements in strengthening the bond between legislators and their constituents while also honouring the national significance of Workers’ Day.
Both legislative chambers – the Senate and the House of Representatives – have urged their members, staff, and the general public to take note of the new resumption date. The National Assembly expressed regret for any inconvenience the change might cause and extended sincere appreciation to all stakeholders for their patience and understanding. This extension underscores the legislature’s commitment not only to its formal duties in plenary but also to grassroots representation and national events that reinforce democratic governance and civic responsibility.
