There was heightened tension at the House of Representatives today following a heated debate over a motion addressing the “need to counter misleading international narratives on religious killings in Nigeria.”
The motion, introduced during plenary, sparked a wave of strong reactions from lawmakers, leading to loud arguments and visible divisions within the chamber. Some members expressed concern that such narratives could harm Nigeria’s global image, while others insisted that the government must first address internal issues before defending itself internationally.
As the disagreement intensified, the Speaker was forced to call for order. To restore calm and properly deliberate on the matter, the House resolved to move into a closed-door session to discuss the motion away from the public eye.
