Senate President Akpabio Swears in Two New Senators to National Assembly

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has sworn in two new senators to the National Assembly, filling vacant seats in the upper chamber. The new lawmakers, Senator Monday Okpebholo and the representative of Anambra South, took their oaths of office during a plenary session.

The vacancies arose from the Edo Central seat becoming vacant due to the election of the Governor of Edo State and the passing of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah from Anambra South earlier this year. Akpabio welcomed the new senators, urging them to focus on national development beyond party interests.

The ceremony was attended by dignitaries, emphasizing the importance of the Senate in Nigeria's political landscape.
