House of Reps goes on recess, commits to oversight duties

The House of Representatives has announced the commencement of its recess and will reconvene on November 19, 2024.

A statement from the Green Chambers said the move is designed to allow members to undertake critical oversight of Ministries, Departments & Agencies of government, and ensure proper accountability on behalf of the Nigerian people.

A statement posted on social media by the House of Reps noted that the decision was first communicated to members via an announcement titled “Pre-Budget Oversight” during plenary on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, by the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Abbas Tajudeen.

It said the schedule was further adjusted today through formal internal correspondence to members from the Clerk of the House, Dr Yahaya Danzaria, 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,” Speaker Abbas noted.

The Speaker also called on his colleagues to utilise the period to enhance governance and uphold their oversight responsibilities.
