The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, announced to the senators in the Upper Chamber that the clerk of the Assembly will send some money into their various bank accounts to enable them to enjoy their holiday.
In the video which surfaced online on Wednesday, August 9, Akpabio made the statement before a motion of adjournment was moved at the end of the Senate’s ministerial screening.
He said, “In order to enable all of us to enjoy our holidays, a token has been sent to our various accounts by the clerk of the national assembly.”
Shortly after, the head of the nation’s upper chamber was alerted by some of his colleagues that the plenary session was live on television.
