 Senator Cory Booker Sets Senate Record with 25-Hour Protest Speech Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey set a new Senate record by delivering a 25-hour, 4-minute speech in protest of President Trump, surpassing the previous 1957 record held by Senator Strom Thurmond. While not a filibuster, Booker's marathon speech disrupted Senate proceedings and highlighted concerns over the country's direction. He read constituent letters, shared stories, and discussed topics ranging from sports to poetry, all while remaining standing and foregoing bathroom breaks. Booker’s speech symbolized resistance, drawing support from his Democratic colleagues. He also referenced his ancestry, noting both slave-owners and slaves in his lineage, and concluded the speech by attending to physical needs after the lengthy effort.

𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗯𝘂𝗻𝗮𝗹: 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗔𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝗣𝗖 𝗜𝗻 𝗔𝗯𝗶𝗮


The National Assembly Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Umuahia, the Abia State capital, has dismissed a petition challenging the election of the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Chief Benjamin Kalu, for lacking in merit.


While delivering judgement on the matter on Tuesday, the three-man panel led by Justice Sampson Gane, ruled that it was the right of the first respondent to change his name as no person or group of persons has the monopoly of any name.


He ruled that Kalu equally harmonized the names in his certificate with a deed poll which was published in the Federal Government’s official gazette.


The judge ruled that the onus of proofs was on the petitioner to prove that the certificates the respondent submitted to INEC did not belong to him, but he abandoned his case for the respondent to prove.


The petition was dismissed for lacking in merit and ordered the parties to bear their administrative cost.
