Bill to amend Kwara joint account law passes first reading
A bill seeking to amend the Kwara Joint Local Government Account and State Joint Account Allocation Committee Law yesterday sailed through first reading on the floor of the House of Assembly.
The Majority Leader of the House, Abdulkareem AbulGaniyu, who represents Share-Oke-Ode constituency, moved the motion for the first reading of the bill.
The motion, which was seconded by Hon. Nimata Ibrahim, enjoyed the support of all members of the house.
The Deputy Speaker of the House, Hon. Gana Issa, who presided over the proceedings of the House, committed the bill to the Rules and Business Committee to prepare it for second reading.
The House in another resolution urged Gov. Abdultafah Ahmed to consider the inclusion of the ecological control fund programme in the 2013 budget of the state.
It unanimously took the decision while receiving the report of its Committee on Energy, Works and Transport following a petition by Amule community of Ilorin on a collapsed bridge and erosion problem.
The House stated that the inclusion of the ecological fund would allow the state government to cater for environment-related disasters.
It also urged the state Ministry of Environment and Forestry to provide refuse bins in areas where they were not available in the state.
The lawmakers said such a measure would prevent the dumping of refuse in drains.
