The Nigerian Senate has postponed the planned interaction with the service chiefs about the worsening insecurity until February 13, 2024.
The decision was taken in order to accommodate everyone involved.
The move comes after the Senate had, earlier on Wednesday, suspended its rules to admit the Service Chiefs and the National Security Adviser (NSA) to enter the chamber and brief lawmakers on the infiltration of bandits and kidnappers into some parts of the country, including the FCT.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio, who approved the move for adjournment, said the Senate would like a holistic deliberation on insecurity.
