Kingibe, whose motion was co-sponsored by five other senators, raised alarm over the total collapse of municipal waste collection across multiple FCT districts, leaving residential areas and public spaces transformed into open dumps for several weeks.
Beyond sanitation concerns, the motion addressed unauthorised demolitions, illegal conversion of green areas, non-payment of salaries, and alleged unlawful land seizures by the FCT administration.
Senate President Godswill Akpabio ruled the motion inadmissible, stating it did not qualify as urgent national importance because too many issues were bundled together. He instructed Kingibe to withdraw and resubmit as a focused motion on waste management alone.
