The Senate and House of Representatives have shifted their resumption of plenary sessions to October 7, 2025.
Both chambers had earlier adjourned on July 24 for their annual two-month recess, with plans to reconvene on September 23. However, a fresh notice from the Clerk to the National Assembly, Kamoru Ogunlana, confirmed the postponement.
In a statement titled “Reschedule of Resumption Date of Plenary Activities in the National Assembly”, Ogunlana announced that the resumption date was moved on the directive of the presiding officers of both chambers.
The statement read:
“I am directed by the presiding officers of both Chambers of National Assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to inform all members of the National Assembly and the general public that the Resumption date of the National Assembly earlier scheduled for Tuesday, September 23, is postponed to Tuesday, October 7, 2025. However, committee activities continue. All distinguished senators and honourable members are requested to take note of the new date and adjust their schedules accordingly. Any inconvenience caused by this rescheduling is deeply regretted.”
The shift means full plenary activities will resume in October, while committee-level engagements and oversight functions will continue as scheduled.
