The Senate President, David Mark, has ordered that the National Assembly complex be shut down till next week Tuesday, November 25, 2014.
This was as a result of the confusion that engulfed the complex earlier today.
It all began when security operatives fenced the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal from entering the National Assembly Complex on Thursday, November 20, 2014.
Lawmakers who accompanied Tambuwal had to climb the second entry point gate as some who could not climb sustained injuries while trying to scale over.
The Speaker was later allowed into the complex at about 10:58am after much entreaties, other lawmakers were denied entry.
The speaker’s official car was detained but after his entry into the outer space of the complex, Security men barricaded him and shot tear gas carnisters into the air to scare him but the speaker stood his ground.
The Deputy Speaker, Emeka Ihedioha arrived earlier at about 10.35am and was given a presidential passage into the complex.
