in a swift, sudden and fast action hoodlums suspected to be loyal to the suspended Senator Ovie Omo- Agege representing Delta Central Senatorial district, have attacked the red chambers and made away with the mace in a black SUV.

The hoodlums attacked while Plenary was going on, taking the Sergeant-At-Arms by surprise as he struggled to reclaim the mace without success, and throwing the house into serious confusion and tension.

This happened as the Deputy Senate president, Ike Ekweremadu was presiding over the plenary in the absence of the Senate President, senator Abubakar Bukola Saraki is currently at the World Bank event in the United States.

It could be recalled that Omo-Agege was suspended last week following his role in the electoral act amendment bill seeking to reorder the election sequence.

The development has thrown the Senate, and the entire National Assembly into confusion and fear of what really happened and what could happen next, as the stolen mace is the symbol of authority and consequently the Senate can no longer legitimately hold plenary until the mace is recovered.

Discussions right now is being held in groups and hush tones as to what might be the next line of action.

As at the time of filing this report, discussions are being held in groups and hush tones, as the situation is hazy and uncertainty looms large.

Details shortly…
