The National Assembly has shifted its resumption date from January 28 to February 4, 2025, to accommodate the completion of ongoing budget defence sessions.
In separate statements issued in Abuja, the Clerks of the Senate and the House of Representatives informed lawmakers of the adjustment.
An internal memo titled “Change in Resumption Date,” dated January 24, 2025, and signed by the Clerk to the Senate, Andrew Nwoba, stated: “Please be informed that there is a change in the resumption date due to the ongoing budget defence.”
The decision underscores the importance of finalising the budgetary process before the legislature reconvenes.
