Senate Suspends Amendment of Code of Conduct Act

By Correspondent

The Nigerian Senate has suspended the ongoing amendment of the Code of Conduct Act which was initiated and referred to its committees on Judiciary and Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions last week. The legislative body also resolved to suspend the amendment of Administration of Criminal Justice Acts (ACJA). Similarly, the report of the Ethics Committee on Kabiru Marafa, a senator known to be opposed to embattled Senate President Bukola Saraki, was also stepped down. These decisions were taken during the Senate’s closed-door session on Wednesday. The lawmakers had on April 14 introduced a bill for an amendment of the Code of Conduct Tribunal and Bureau Act, rushing it through second reading just 48 hours after it was first read.
