Report reaching Precise Post has it that the National Assembly has now shifted the resumption date of plenary from January 23 to January 30th.
The Clerk to the House of Representatives, Dr. Yahaya Danzaria, made this known in a terse message seen by our Correspendent in Abuja on Saturday, January 13.
The Senate and House of Representatives had earlier fixed their resumption for Tuesday January 23, 2024.
Danzaria in an announcement addressed to all Honourable Members of the House of Representatives said the new resumption date will be Tuesday January 30th, 2024.
The short message titled: “Announcement” and signed by Danzaria reads: “I am directed inform Hon Members that the resumption date for both Senate and House of Representatives has been shifted upwards from Tuesday, 23rd January, 2024 (earlier announced) to Tuesday, 30th January, 2024 at 11:00am prompt. All inconveniences are regretted.”
Precise Post recalls that the Senate and House of Representatives had delayed their Yuletide recess to enable them consider and pass the 2024 budget. The two chambers passed the 2024 budget on Sayurday, 30th of December 2023.
