The leadership of the 10th Senate has announced a change in the date for its resumption of plenary sessions. Originally scheduled for April 29, 2025, the new resumption date has been shifted to Tuesday, May 6, 2025.
This adjustment was communicated via an internal memo dated April 20, 2025, addressed to all senators and signed by the Senate Clerk, Andrew Ogbonna Nwoba. The decision was attributed to the upcoming International Workers’ Day holiday on May 1 and the need for lawmakers to attend to important constituency engagements.
The circular stated: “Distinguished Senators, I am directed to inform you that the resumption of plenary sittings of the Senate, earlier scheduled for Monday, 29th April 2025, has been rescheduled to Tuesday, 6th May 2025.
This postponement is made to allow Distinguished Senators to stay with their constituents during the International Workers’ Day public holiday in the first week of May and to further enhance constituency engagements.
Distinguished Senators are kindly requested to take note of this postponement while regretting any inconvenience the change might have caused.”
The Senate had earlier adjourned plenary on March 27, ahead of the Easter and Eid-El-Fitr holidays.
