Senate In Emergency Session Over Emergency Rule In Rivers

Senator Seriake Dickson then raised a point of order, leading to a brief exchange with Senate President Akpabio.

Senator Dickson clarified that he wanted to invoke Senate Rule Order 133, which mandates a closed-door briefing by the Senate President on the circumstances surrounding a state of emergency proclamation.

Following this, the Senate went into a closed-door executive session.
