Senate President Godswill Akpabio has urged all aggrieved lawmakers to sheath their sword and cooperate with his leadership.
The embattled former Akwa Ibom State Governor said that the progress the country deserved at the moment could only be achieved in a state of unity.
OsunDailyNG reports that Akpabio stated this on Tuesday as the Senate resumed plenary after six weeks of recess and dissolved into a closed session to deliberate on issues affecting the nation.
Top of the agenda of the plenary session is the confirmation of the nomination of Mr. Olayemi Cardoso for appointment as Central Bank of Nigeria.
The red chamber also planned to screen and confirm, at the committee of the whole, the appointment of four new deputy governors; namely Emem Nnana Usoro, Muhammad Sani Abdullahi Dattijo, Philip Ikeazor and Bala M. Bello.
