Senate President Godswill Akpabio, accompanied by the Senate leadership, engages in a closed-door meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
This strategic gathering unfolds just hours after the Senate's suspension of Senator Abdul Ningi for three months, a consequence of his critiques on the implementation of the 2024 budget.
Notable figures, including Deputy Senate President Barau Jibrin, are part of this critical discourse. The suspended Senator Ningi, representing Bauchi Central and chairing the Northern Senators’ Forum, tenders his resignation in response to the suspension.
As Nigeria observes this political maneuver, questions arise regarding the implications for legislative dynamics and the future course of the Senate's actions.
