The Federal Government has expressed shock at the invasion of the
National Assembly and the subsequent snatching of the Senate mace by
thugs on Wednesday.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Tuesday, the Minister of Information
and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said the security agencies have been
directed to immediately unravel the circumstances surrounding the
breach of security that led to the invasion.
He said the security around the National Assembly complex would also
be reinforced to prevent a recurrence.
