Description | Nigerian security forces fired teargas on opposition (APC) lawmakers inside the parliament complex as they attempted to enter for a key vote on emergency rule in the northeast. Members of Tambuwal's All Progressives Congress (APC) party have described the state of emergency first imposed in May last year as a failure because of escalating violence and have argued it should not be renewed. No injuries reported. A similar attempt against APC lawmakers occurred two days prior. |
