The Nigerian Senate on Tuesday suspended plenary and adjourned till Tuesday, November 24, 2020.
President of the Senate, Dr Ahmed Lawan, who made this known said the suspension of plenary was to enable the various Senate committees to consider the 2021 budget estimates of the federal government.
Lawan said ministers and heads of parastatals will be expected to appear during the break before the relevant Senate committees to defend the allocation for the various Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs).
It was not clear if the decision of the Senate may not be unconnected with the nationwide ongoing EndSARS protests but in the last two days in some parts of the country where the protests have turned violent leading to loss of lives may have compelled the Senate to arrive at the rather hasty decision to suspend plenary.
if FG is really serious reforming the Police, I suggest all Police stations must not have a holding bay , cell, guard room or detection centers to avoid unwarranted torturers and humiliations that take place in all Police stations all over the country. On arrest
culprits should be detained in canter and taken to court for necessary steps and not the police taking the law in their hands.
