The Senate on Thursday passed the South-West Development Commission Bill, 2024.
The bill passed third reading after senators considered and approved all the recommendations of the Senate Committee on Special Duties, which worked on the bill.
Deputy President of the Senate, Sen. Barau Jibrin, who presided over Thursday’s plenary, commended the committee and the entire Senate for the speedy attention they gave to the bill.
Jibrin said, “I Commend the committee for a job well done, especially the Chairman, Kaka Shehu Lawan.
“I say More grease to the elbows of the chairman and I also commend members of the committee for working tirelessly during this assignment.
“The bill will help to deal with the infrastructure and ecological challenges of the South-West.
“When that region is developed, it will also affect the entire nation.
“We thank Mr President for giving assent to similar bills earlier passed by the National Assembly and we look forward to having him assent to the South-West Development Commission Bill.”
