Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Dr Akin Fapohunda, who is neither a member of the   Senate or the House of Representatives; had come up with the bill in question.

‘The Committees on Rules and Business and Constitution Review have confirmed that there is no such bill before them’, Rep  Akin Rotimi, clarified on Friday..

‘There are two routes to making presentations for constitutional amendments. One is by members proposing an amendment bill during the plenary. The second is by memoranda from individuals and groups to the Constitution Review Committee

Please, note that memoranda submitted should eventually come by way of bills sponsored by a member of the committee.
On this specific memo (draft bill) under reference, I doubt if it has come before the Rules and Business Committee for listing. I speak as chairman of the committee’ Chairman, House Committee on Rules and Business, Francis Waive, also submitted-Team@orientactualmags.com  Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
