The National Assembly has shifted its resumption date from September 23 to October 7, 2025.
Both chambers — the Senate and House of Representatives — had adjourned plenary on July 24 to allow lawmakers observe their annual two-month recess. They were originally expected to reconvene on Tuesday, September 23.
However, in a statement issued Tuesday morning, the Clerk to the National Assembly, Kamoru Ogunlana, announced the new date.
The statement, titled “Reschedule of Resumption Date of Plenary Activities in the National Assembly”, read:
“I am directed by the Presiding Officers of both Chambers of the National Assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to inform all members of the National Assembly and the general public that the Resumption date of the National Assembly earlier scheduled for Tuesday, 23rd September, 2025, is postponed to Tuesday, 7th October, 2025.
“However, committee activities continue. All Distinguished Senators and Honourable Members are requested to take note of the new date and adjust their schedules accordingly. Any inconvenience caused by this rescheduling is deeply regretted.”
With the adjustment, full plenary sessions are now expected to resume in both chambers on October 7, while committee-level engagements will continue uninterrupted.
