A recent session in the Nigerian Senate witnessed a heated exchange between Senate President Godswill Akpabio and Senator Adams Oshiomhole regarding proposed amendments to the Senate rules. Akpabio's initiative aimed to secure the Senate leadership for himself in the upcoming 11th assembly session, even before the conclusion of the current 10th assembly. Central to the contention was Akpabio's proposal to restrict the leadership positions to ranking Senators who have served for a minimum of eight years prior to the election, ensuring that only those who were part of the immediate preceding session could be considered for leadership roles.
