Breaking : National Assembly Suspends 2019 Election Sequence Bill

The  National Assembly after the rowdy session has suspended the root cause of the whole problem; the 2019 election sequence bill.

The bill sought to amend electoral act to change the sequence of the election in a way that the presidential election comes last, after the state assemblies/national assembly and governorship elections.

Immediately the bill was passed by the senate, a group of senators kicked against the amendment of the election sequence.

The Northern senators’ caucus dropped their leader, Sen. Abdullahi Adamu, for leading the campaign against the amendment.

In spite of his apology, pro-Buhari Senator Ovie Omo-Agege was last week suspended for 60 legislative days for taking the senate to court over the bill.

Some hours after Omo-Agege led some thugs to seize the mace of the senate in protest against his suspension, the lower legislative chamber dropped the bill during plenary on Wednesday.
