HOR Again Postpones Resumption

The House of Representatives has further rescheduled its resumption date earlier slated for Tuesday, April 23 by one week.

The House, in a statement by its spokesperson and Chairman, Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Akin Rotimi, explains that it is to enable members to have more time for constituency outreach to secure adequate input in the constitution review process.

“The extension follows the earlier decision by the House Committee on Constitution Review to extend the deadline for submission of memoranda to April 30, 2024,” it further explains.

The new adjustment, the statement notes has been communicated by the Clerk of the House of Representatives, Dr. Yahaya Danzaria, in an internal correspondence to members.

“Additionally, the extended timeline will allow for more concerted preparation for the legislative summit on State Police, as well as the one on Tax Reforms, Revenue Enhancement, and Digital Transformation coming up in the next 2 weeks.

“All inconveniences arising from this rescheduling are regretted.In line with the Legislative Agenda of the 10th Assembly, the House remains committed to being accountable and providing timely communications to all stakeholders.”
