Top national issues requiring the urgent attention of the National Assembly expected to be discussed at the meeting includes; the possibility of reconvening the National Assembly to consider the supplementary budget for the 2019 elections, forwarded to it by the President shortly before it went on vacation, as well as the plot to impeach the Senate President, following his defection to the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
