By Iyojo Ameh

The Senate has adjourned plenary to September 23, 2025, marking the end of the current legislative year, with a directive to all committees to conclude work on pending reports ahead of resumption.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio made the announcement on Thursday after a closed-door executive session that lasted over an hour.

He charged all standing and ad hoc committees to make effective use of the two-month break to finalise their assignments in order to ease legislative consideration and adoption upon resumption.

In his earlier remarks, Senator Akpabio also encouraged lawmakers to use the recess period to inspect road construction projects in their constituencies and across the country.

Meanwhile, senators are expected to travel to Jos, Plateau State on Friday to attend the burial of the wife of their colleague, Senator Diket Plang.
