House of reps to resume Tuesday amid COVID-19 pandemic
The house of representatives, today, served notice for members to resume on Tuesday amid coronavirus pandemic.
It would be recalled that the lower legislative chamber suspended plenary on March 24 when the country had 44 COVID-19 cases.
Nigeria currently has 1,182 COVID-19 cases out of which 222 person have recovered and 35 fatalities.
But in a notice on Sunday, Patrick Giwa, clerk of the green chamber, asked members to take note of the resumption date.
“This is to inform all Members of the House of Representatives that the House will now resume plenary session on Tuesday, April 28, 2020, at 10.am,” he said.
“Members are advised to take note of the new date of resumption, please.
“The Covid-19 Guidelines approved by the Federal Government and the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) and additional Guidelines developed by the House will be sent to Members’ pigeon holes for collection on resumption.
“Staff and Members’ Aides are to work from home and will be notified when needed in the office for any special assignment.”
