Senate Condemns Attack On Senate Chambers, Says It An ‘Act of Treason’


Today, some armed hoodlums led by suspended Senator, Ovie Omo-Agege, walked into the Senate plenary and seized the symbol of authority of the Upper Legislative Chamber, the mace.

This action is an act of treason, as it is an attempt to overthrow a branch of the Federal Government of Nigeria by force, and it must be treated as such. All Security agencies must stand on the side of due process and immediately mobilize  their personnel to retrieve the mace and apprehend the mastermind and the perpetrators of this act.

The Senate is now in an Executive session.
An updated statement will be released immediately after the closed door session.

Senate Spokesperson
