Senate names suspended Delta Senator, Omo-Agege as mastermind of Mace snatching

Authorities of the Nigerian Senate have reacted to the snatching of the Mace during a plenary session moments ago.
According to the statement signed by Senate Spokesperson, Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi, the act was masterminded by suspended Delta Central Senator, Ovie Omo-Agege.

“Today, some armed hoodlums led by suspended Senator, Ovie Omo-Agege, walked into the Senate plenary and seized the symbol of authority of the Upper Legislative Chamber, the mace,” the statement read in part.

The Senate further described the incident as act of treason as “it is an attempt to overthrow a branch of the Federal Government of Nigeria by force, and it must be treated as such.”
