National Assembly Will Not Resume Until After Political Party Primaries

The National Assembly may not resume until after political party primaries

Strong indications have emerged that the leadership of both chambers may extend the resumption of plenary beyond the initially agreed date of September 25 to enable members to participate in their party primaries.

According to the timetable released by INEC, party primaries for the presidential, governorship, federal and state assembly elections would run between August 18 and October 7, 2018.

With this arrangement, a principal officer confided in one of our correspondents that since members would be busy in their states for the primaries, it would be proper to extend the resumption by at least two weeks.
