The Police on Wednesday arrested suspended lawmaker, Sen. Ovie Omo-Agege (APC-Delta) at the National Assembly Complex over the Senate mace snatching saga.
Senator Ovie has disclosed that he cannot be arrested because, according to law the courthouse has pronounced, the National Assembly most especially the Senate, does not have the power to suspend a senator for one day.
Meanwhile the Senate had on April 12, suspended the lawmaker over an alleged “dissenting comment’’ on decision of the chamber on adoption of conference report on INEC Act (2010) Amendment Bill, which is supposed to last for 90 days, although it was reduced to that number from 181 legislative days, by the Senate president.
It was gathered that the law maker came into the National Assembly at the time hoodlums invaded the Senate chamber which lead to him being suspected.
