The adjournment of plenary is to enable senators attend the conference which is being held at the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) secretariat in Abuja.
Ike Ekweremadu, deputy senate president, made the announcement on Thursday after he took the prayers.
The deputy senate president said President Muhammadu Buhari would be in attendance.
“There is an APU conference this week and we, the national assembly are hosting it,” he said.
“Today is the opening ceremony and the president of the federal republic Nigeria will be in attendance. So, we will just take the vote and proceedings and adjourn.”
The APU is a continental inter-parliamentary organisation aimed at bringing parliaments in African countries closer.
The senate will resume sitting next week Tuesday.
