According to Shehu Sani all entitlements together with access to the National Assembly and salaries stop immediately when a Nigerian senator gets suspended.
Through his X (formerly Twitter) post Sani detailed that suspension of a senator completely bars such members from taking part in legislative actions.
Suspended senators automatically lose their positions to access the chamber hall or to take part in both plenary and committee meetings.
Suspended senators must not enter the National Assembly grounds during their period of being barred from the premises because their office remains sealed.
Widespread reactions emerged after his announcement because numerous people wanted to know if suspended senators could retrieve their unpaid salaries at the conclusion of their suspension period.
The suspension of a senator exists as a contentious issue since activists dispute how these actions compare between legitimate disciplinary intervention and Senate President abuse of authority.
The discussion unfolds during increasing oversight of Nigeria's legislature as people seek more precise regulations to constrain unacceptable executive actions in the Senate.
