A member of Nigeria’s House of Representatives has called for the National Assembly to suspend legislative business until the Tinubu administration takes decisive action on the country’s worsening security crisis. Alhassan Ado Doguwa, who represents Doguwa and Tudun Wada Federal Constituency of Kano State, made the demand during a special security session of the House on Tuesday.
Africentra has confirmed that Doguwa, a senior lawmaker from the ruling All Progressives Congress, urged Speaker Tajudeen Abbas to “shut down” the legislature. His words: “Who are you legislating for? What law are you making when the country is running in blood?”
The call came during a special session convened specifically to address national security. Doguwa, a former Majority Leader of the House, described Nigeria’s security environment as “devastating” and “horrific.”
