The leadership of the Senate has called for an emergency session of the Senate in Wednesday, although the memo did not say what the emergency session was all about, but feelers suggests it might be a direct response to the planned #EndBadGovernance protest billed to start on the 1st of August, 2024.

The statement reads, “Dear Distinguished Senators, The President of the Senate, His Excellency, Senator Godswill Obot Akpabio, GCON, has directed that an emergency plenary sitting of the Senate be convened as follows:
Date: WEDNESDAY, JULY 31st, 2024;
TIME: 12 NOON;
Distinguished Senators are requested to make all necessary arrangements to attend as issues of national importance will be discussed.
“We regret all inconveniences that this interruption of the recess will cause.
Thanks for your usual understanding.
(Sgd)
Chinedu Francis Akubueze,
Clerk of Senate.”
