24 hours to the end of their tenure, members of the Nigerian Senate
passed 46 bills in less than 10 minutes, a situation best described as a
'historic moment'. The Senators will be ending their tenure as tomorrow
June 4th to give rise to the 8th National Assembly.
At today's plenary session, the Chairman, Senate Committee on Rules and
Business, Senator Ita Enang, announced all 46 bills before the house and
then Senate President, David Mark, immediately called for votes on all
the 46. He gave consent to all the "Ayess" which resulted in a rowdy
session as those who were against the manner in which the bills were
passed voiced their objection. The Senate President however told the
aggrieved Senators to come tomorrow for consideration.
