The motion, which was sponsored by one of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lawmakers representing the Federal Capital Territory, Philip Aduda, was greeted with shouts of “no, no” when he tried to explain it.
Similarly, the attempt by the Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, to second the motion was disrupted by the rowdiness.
Intervening, President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, posed the question but the senators responded along party lines.
While PDP members yelled a ‘yes’ in favour of the motion, All Progressives Congress (APC) senators, who were in majority, rejected it.
