The Nigerian Senate has called on journalists to help educate the public about parliamentary rules and procedures. The appeal came after a misunderstanding involving Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan during plenary.
Lawmakers said the media plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between parliament and citizens by ensuring accurate reporting of legislative activities. They stressed that better public awareness would reduce misinterpretations and strengthen democracy.
The Senate pledged to continue working with the press in promoting transparency and accountability in its proceedings.
