Members of the House of Representatives resumed sitting after sanity was restored following the rowdy session that greeted the selection of principal officers.

The Speaker, Yakubu Dogara reconvened plenary and urged members to count themselves lucky to be chosen to represent their constituency. He later adjourned the House till July 21 while pledging that the crisis that rocked the House will be resolved.

Recalled that the hallowed chamber of the House of Representatives was thrown into commotion as pro-All Progressives Congress lawmakers have kicked against the election of principal officers by the Speaker, Yakubu Dogara.

There were clashes between members loyal to Dogara and members loyal to the decision of the APC in nominating principal officers.

There were attempts by some lawmakers to hijack the mace. However, there are fears that the mace might be missing or kept away from the chamber during the fracas.

Pro-APC lawmakers were chanting ‘APC, party supremacy’ while Dogara loyalists chanted ‘Dogara’.

Sad. Really sad

Wish ALL of them minus PMB can just fall of the face of the earth....

They can kill themselves for all we care but they should realise that some people can see through their ruse of distracting Nigerians from further agitation about their ridiculous & insenstive Jumbo pay...

By the time they reconvene in 4 weeks time, they would have been paid & the fight will be meaningless.. Bunch of greedey M0FOs!!!


They've also pushed Cabinet Appintment by another month!! What kind of F up country is this?? God why did I have to be born here?

K

Dogara will defect to PDP in a short while.

guys reconcile and get to work. no time to waste time

Gbaja and Tinubu lost out in everything.
Tinubu should know that regional politics is diffrent from National politics

Apologies. Didn’t know that the Senate also adjourned. It doesn’t speak well for the APC/Government because they are one and the same -they should put their house in order and not hold Nigerians hostage. They had since the elections, to tidy up all these and hit the ground running. Anyway, I tell you what, on a lighter note it remind me of school days then in the North. We knew that any opportunity, there are some seasons when it was "strategic" to go on holiday. As it, these people have gone on holiday till after the expected public holidays around 17-19 July!
