House Of Representatives Begins Recess, To Resume November 19

The House of Representatives has announced the commencement of its recess adding that it will resume on Tuesday, November 19, 2024.

Akin Rotimi, Jr., Spokesman, House of Representatives disclosed this in a statement signed on Monday, noting that the recess is designed to allow members to undertake critical oversight of Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) of Government and to ensure proper accountability on behalf of the Nigerian people.

The Speaker called on members to utilise the time to enhance governance and uphold their oversight responsibilities.

 

He also urged the MDAs to cooperate with visiting lawmakers in compliance with relevant sections of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (As amended) and the House’s Standing Orders.

 

The statement reads in part; “The House of Representatives wishes to announce the commencement of recess, and will reconvene on Tuesday, November 19, 2024.

“This recess is designed to allow Honourable Members to undertake critical oversight of Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) of Government and to ensure proper accountability on behalf of the Nigerian people.

 

“This decision was first communicated to Honourable Members via an announcement titled “Pre-Budget Oversight” during plenary on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Abbas Tajudeen, PhD. GCON.

 

“The schedule was further adjusted today through formal internal correspondence to Honourable Members from the Clerk of the House, Dr. Yahaya Danzaria, Esq., on the directive of the House Leadership.

 

“As we approach the close of the year, this period of oversight is essential for assessing the performance of Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs), ensuring accountability and efficiency within the public sector and fulfilling our obligation to the Nigerian people. I therefore urge all members of Parliament to approach this assignment with the seriousness that it deserves.

 

“I call on all MDAs to extend their full cooperation, providing members with all necessary information and access to facilitate thorough and meaningful assessments,” he added.

 

The public is advised that the recess will only affect House plenary sessions, while other legislative activities, including constituency outreach, committee meetings, and essential consultations in preparation for the forthcoming budget sessions, will continue as usual.

The 10th Assembly of the House of Representatives remained committed to upholding the principles of transparency and accountability while effectively addressing the needs of the Nigerian people.
