The 10th Senate has shifted its resumption date from the earlier scheduled April 29 to May 6, 2025.
The new date was communicated through an internal memo dated April 20, 2025, and signed by Senate Clerk, Andrew Ogbonna Nwoba.
The memo was addressed to all members of the Senate.
The change in schedule was attributed to the upcoming International Workers’ Day on May 1 and to provide lawmakers more time to carry out constituency-related duties.
Part of the circular reads: “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.”
The Senate Clerk also extended apologies for any inconvenience the change might have caused.
