The House of Representatives has temporarily suspended its plenary session in tribute to the late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, who passed away during the National Assembly’s annual recess.
This gesture follows the long-standing tradition of the National Assembly, where the first sitting is adjourned following the demise of any federal lawmaker.
Plenary will reconvene on Wednesday, 25th September.
Senator Ubah, the CEO of Capital Oil, passed away after travelling to the UK for a medical procedure. He was due to celebrate his 53rd birthday on September 3.

After more than two months of recess, Nigerian senators and members of the House of Representatives have returned to Abuja to resume full legislative activities.
The federal lawmakers had embarked on recess on July 23 and were scheduled to return on September 17; however, they extended their break by an additional week.
During their absence, several urgent national issues emerged, warranting immediate attention and response from the legislators. Many of these matters directly impact their constituents and have been the subject of public discourse nationwide.
As the 469 federal legislators reconvene today, they are expected to prioritize these pressing concerns, engaging in discussions that could shape policies and decisions affecting millions of Nigerians.
The resumption comes at a critical time, as the country faces various challenges that require legislative input and action.
