Senate embarks on 19-day recess for Sallah break

The Senate has adjourned plenary to enable it to embark on a 19-day recess for the forthcoming Sallah break.

The Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, who announced this on Wednesday, revealed July 19, 2022, as the resumption date.

KEMI FILANI NEWS had reported that the Senate confirmed the seven ministerial nominees sent to the Red Chamber by President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday.
