Senate Summons Security Chiefs Over Extension Of Emergency Rule

Africtv - Mail News... Report

The Senate has stepped down the debate on the extension of emergency rule in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe states.
President Goodluck Jonathan had sent a request to the National Assembly seeking an extension of the
state of emergency in Nigeria’s north eastern states of Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe by six months.

The Senate Leader, Victor Ndoma- Egba, who was to move the motion for the extension of the emergency rule in the three states asked federal lawmakers to step down the debate until another day, to allow the senate review the success or otherwise of the emergency rule which has been in effect since May 2013.

To this end, the senate has summoned the service chiefs and the ministers of defense and police affairs to appear before lawmakers at plenary to explain the security situation in the three North Eastern states.
