The National Assembly has cut short its resumption date, with a new one fixed for Thursday, May 28, 2020, to enable the lawmakers consider the reviewed 2020 budget.
The new date would enable the lawmakers resume after the Sallah break, to consider President Muhammadu Buhari’s Appropriation (Amendment) Bill 2020.
It would be recalled that both chambers of the National Assembly had on May 20 adjourned plenary to June 2, to enable Senators and members of the House of Representatives observe the Eid-el-Fitr Sallah festival.
The Clerk to the National Assembly, Mohammed Sani-Omolori, in a statement revealed that all Senators and members of the House of Representatives are expected to resume.
