Kwara Assembly Suspends Lawmaker for Recording Closed-Door Session

The Kwara Assembly suspended a lawmaker, Gideon, for secretly recording and sharing a private session, breaching legislative ethics. The incident occurred during a Thursday plenary session when Gideon admitted to circulating the audio outside the chamber.

Several lawmakers condemned the act as a serious breach of trust and parliamentary privilege. Gideon was directed to submit a written apology within the suspension period.

Efforts to obtain further details were unsuccessful as Gideon declined to respond to requests for comments.
