The House of Representatives, during the plenary on Thursday, rejected the second reading of a bill to provide a single six-year term for presidents and governors.
The bill is sponsored by Rep. Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere and 33 others.
It also seeks to provide that all elections should be held on the same day and other provisions.
It was titled, “A Bill for an Act to Alter the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended) to create a single term of six years for the office of President and State Governors, recognize the division of Nigeria into the six geopolitical zones, provide for the rotation of the office of President, State Governor, and chairman of a Local Government Council among the Inherent regions and zones, and provide that all elections be held on a single day and for Related Matters (HB. 1511)”.
The Bill was introduced for a second reading by the lead sponsor, Rep. Ugochinyere, and seconded.
However, when the bill was put into voice vote by the Speaker, Abbas Tajuddeen, there was a loud ‘Nay’ from the members.
The Speaker therefore announced that the ‘Nays’ had it, which means that the bill was rejected and failed to scale through a second reading.
