Senate reconvenes sitting on Tuesday

The Senate will reconvene sitting on Tuesday, February 17, 2026.

The Clerk of the Senate, Emmanuel Odo, announced this via an official notice to the senators, which was made available to newsmen on Sunday.

Odo said the notice was on the directive of Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

The notice read: “I am directed by the President of the Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio, to inform all distinguished senators that the Senate will reconvene plenary session as follows: Date: Tuesday, February 17 by 11 a.m.
