Senate Calls for Immediate Ceasefire in Israel-Hamas Conflict

In a session held on Tuesday, November 7, the Senate has called upon the federal government to collaborate with the United Nations in order to establish an immediate ceasefire in the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. 

The Senate, also known as the Red Chamber, further urged the federal government to actively pursue a two-state solution to resolve the conflict, which has resulted in the loss of numerous lives, including women, children, and aid workers. These resolutions were the outcome of a motion presented by Senator Adamu Aliero, representing the PDP from Central Kebbi. Senator Aliero expressed deep concern over the alarming casualty figures in the war, emphasizing that without a prompt resolution, it could escalate to a global conflict, potentially leading to World War III.

During the Senate's deliberation, several senators, including Barau Jibrin (Kano North), Enyinnaya Abaribe (Abia South), and Sani Musa (Niger East), voiced their strong condemnation of the killings on both sides of the conflict. They collectively called for an immediate cessation of hostilities and the protection of lives and property.
