Senator Clifford Ordia, representing Edo Central in the National Assembly, on Thursday during Senate plenary, raised a petition against Chevron Nigeria.
TheNewsGuru (TNG) reports Senator Ordia raises the petition on behalf of a constituency member against Chevron Nigeria on their refusal to keep to terms of engagement.
Senate President Bukola Saraki then referred the petition to the committee on ethics, privileges and public petition to report back in 2 weeks.
Meanwhile, at resumed plenary sitting on Thursday, the Senate revisited the sealing of Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly by security agents.
Senator Bassey Akpan cites orders 42 and 52 and informed the House of progress on the matter.
The “security agents are still there. No legislator has been allowed in or out. We owe the people of Akwa Ibom this responsibility. It is not right. An injury to Akwa Ibom State is an injury to Nigeria,” Senator Akpan said.
