The House also received a message from the Governor informing them of his decision to substitute four nominees for Deputy Chairmen of Caretaker Committees of some Local Governments.

During the plenary, the Speaker of the Assembly, Abubakar Y Sulaiman, stated that the lawmakers had conducted thorough screenings of the nominees.
He further noted that the Caretaker Chairmen were duly screened alongside their Deputies during the plenary.
The Speaker emphasized that the screening was carried out in accordance with the State Local Government Administration Amendments law, which empowered the Assembly to confirm the Governor’s nominees.
The Speaker then announced that nominees from Bauchi, Kirfi, Shira, and Zaki are currently out of the country and will be screened when the House resumes plenary and they are present.
The nominees confirmed by the parliament were from Alkaleri, Bogoro, Dambam, Darazo, Dass, Gamawa Ganjuwa, and Giade LGAs.
