Inauguration of 10th National Assembly: 109 Senators-elect, 359 Reps-elect to take oath of office

Story from Vivian DANIEL, Abuja

The long-awaited inauguration of the 10th National Assembly is finally approaching.

The event is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, June 13, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. WAT.

This announcement was made by the Clerk to the National Assembly, Sani Tambuwal, in a statement released on Thursday, June 8, 2023.

During the ceremony, 109 Senators-elect and 359 members-elect of the House of Representatives are expected to be sworn in.

It should be noted that after the general elections held on February 25, a member-elect from Taraba State, Isma’ila Maihanchi, who was elected to represent Jalingo, Yerro, and Zing Federal Constituency, passed away, reducing the available number from 360 to 359.

Tambuwal emphasized that the senators-elect and members-elect should bring copies of their code of conduct clearance, certificates of return, and valid identity cards for registration on Monday, June 12, at 10:00 a.m. WAT.

They are to report to the Senate conference room 231 and the House of Representatives conference room 301, respectively.

He further stated that only those senators-elect and members-elect who have duly registered will be granted access to the legislative chambers.

“Due to the ongoing renovation of the two chambers, senators-elect and Honourable members-elect are allowed to bring only one guest for the ceremony, who will be seated at the arcade,” he said.
