The Delta State House of Assembly has passed the Electricity Power Sector Bill, 2024, into law.
The executive bill, which was fast-tracked, was passed on Wednesday after its third reading during a plenary session presided over by Speaker Dennis Guwor.
The House Majority Leader, Emeka Nwaobi, had earlier moved a motion to suspend Order 12, Rules 79-83 of the Assembly’s standing rules, to allow for the third reading and passage of the bill.
The motion, seconded by PDP member Frank Esenwah, representing Oshimili North Constituency, was unanimously adopted when put to a voice vote by the Speaker.
