The unprecedented decision was unanimously welcomed by an overwhelming majority of members after a Kano lawmaker, Baballe Bashir (APC, Kano) moved for the amendment of a motion moved by Mark Gbilah (APC, Benue).
The House also resolved to suspend its plenary for three days (one week) in solidarity with victims of attacks across the country.
