The Nigerian Senate has postponed the resumption of its plenary sitting from September 23 to October 7, 2025.
The extension was confirmed in an internal memo signed by Chinedu Akubueze, Chief of Staff to the Senate President, and circulated to lawmakers.
“This is to respectfully inform Distinguished Senators that the resumption of plenary sitting of the Senate, earlier scheduled for Tuesday, 23rd September, 2025, has been shifted to Tuesday, 7th October, 2025,” the memo stated.
The notice added that the adjustment was regrettable but necessary, urging senators to take note of the change and adjust their schedules accordingly.
With this development, the upper chamber of the National Assembly has effectively prolonged its annual recess by an additional two weeks.
