The National Assembly is set to reconvene on Tuesday amid indications that lawmakers may review issues surrounding the date of the 2027 presidential election. The resumption follows the end of the legislative recess, with several key national matters expected to top the agenda.

Among the issues drawing attention is the possibility of adjustments to the electoral timetable as political stakeholders begin early preparations for the next general elections. While no formal proposal has been announced, discussions within legislative circles suggest that the timing of the presidential poll could come under consideration.

Sources within the Assembly say any review would be guided by constitutional provisions and recommendations from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). Lawmakers are expected to weigh logistical, legal, and political factors before taking any position on the matter.

Observers note that changes to the election date would require broad consensus and possible amendments to existing electoral laws. Such a move, if pursued, could spark nationwide debate among political parties, civil society groups, and other stakeholders.

As plenary resumes, attention will be focused on how the leadership of both chambers prioritizes the issue. Nigerians are expected to closely monitor proceedings in the coming weeks for clarity on whether the 2027 presidential election timetable will indeed be reviewed.
