Deputy Senate President Barau Jibrin has assured that the National Assembly will transmit the final draft of the constitutional amendment bills to state Houses of Assembly before the end of 2025. Speaking at a joint session with the Conference of Speakers in Abuja, Barau, who chairs the Senate Committee on Constitution Amendment, said the process is in its final stages.
He noted that major deliberations had been concluded during a previous session in Lagos, and sub-committees were tasked with refining specific proposals, including those on new states and local governments. Monday’s meeting focused on validating earlier decisions and finalizing outstanding issues.
Barau emphasized the critical role of state legislatures, as constitutional amendments require approval from at least 24 state assemblies. He stressed that the engagement with Speakers was to ensure alignment with public consultations and state-level inputs.
He urged all stakeholders to remain committed to the process, reaffirming the legislature’s pledge to deliver the draft bills before year-end.
