The Senate on Tuesday stepped down the bill to establish the Nigerian Peace Corps, after lawmakers citing court cases involving the group, opposed its passage.
The rejection came after Senator Bayero Nafada presented his committee’s report on the bill awaiting its passage for a third reading.
But senators, including deputy senate president, Ike Ekweremadu, and minority leader, Godswill Akpabio, argued against its passage.
They cited the lawsuit involving the head of the peace corps and the police.
