Nigerian House of Reps Order Paper 2 June 2026: Key Bills & Motions
On Tuesday, 2 June 2026, the Nigerian House of Representatives was scheduled to debate four bills at second reading, consider a motion on restoring a suppressed Osun State constituency, and receive committee reports on citizen petitions involving a telecom company, the Nigerian Army, and a savings institution. The session touched on issues ranging from energy sector reform and disability rights to local government representation and alleged property fraud.
The House of Representatives sat on Tuesday, 2 June 2026, with a busy legislative agenda covering bills, a motion, and committee petition reports.
Four bills were listed for second reading. The first seeks to establish a School of Hospitality in Uzairue, Edo State. The second proposes creating a National Agency for Artisanal Petroleum Refining, which would provide a regulatory framework for building and operating artisanal refineries across Nigeria. The third aims to amend the 2018 law that prohibits discrimination against persons with disabilities. The fourth is a constitutional alteration bill seeking to create additional local government areas in Imo State.
A motion was tabled calling on INEC to restore the Orolu State Constituency in Osun State, which has been without representation since 2004 despite a 2014 Federal High Court order directing INEC to act. The motion argues this leaves Osun State with 26 state assembly members instead of the constitutionally required 27.
The House also considered four committee reports on public petitions. These covered a land dispute between a Rivers State woman and Airtel Networks, the alleged unlawful dismissal of a Nigerian Army lance corporal, a property fraud allegation involving Aso Savings and Loans and the ICPC, and a petition from Human Rights Radio (Brekete Family).
