BREAKING! Lawmakers from both Senate and House of Reps Have reached a consensus to Create Additional State in Southeast to Ease Tension | #IgbereTV
Lawmakers from both chambers reportedly reached a consensus that the South-east’s request met the principles of equity, justice, and fairness, which have guided the current constitutional review process.
The South-east is currently the only geopolitical zone in Nigeria with five states, compared to seven in the North-west zone and six in the remaining four zones.
After prolonged debate, Senator Abdul Ningi (PDP, Bauchi Central) moved a motion for the creation of the new state, which was seconded by Ibrahim Isiaka (APC, Ogun State).
The motion received unanimous approval from members of the joint committee, signalling rare bipartisan consensus on what has long been a politically sensitive issue.
