Twenty-four hours after passing for second reading two bills to review the death penalty law and removal of immunity for the Offices of the Vice President, governors, and deputy governors, the House of Representatives has rescinded decisions on the proposed legislation.
The resolution of the House was disclosed at a plenary session today by the House Leader, Prof Julius Ihonvbere.
Recall that both bills passed through a second reading stage yesterday as part of the 42 proposed legislations considered during plenary.
The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Benjamin Kalu, who presided over the plenary session in the absence of the Speaker, Tajudeen Abbas, said the decision on the bills is to enable the House to conduct a more robust debate by the lawmakers.
