Nigerian House of Reps Order Paper: Key Bills & Motions, June 9 2026

On Tuesday, 9 June 2026, the Nigerian House of Representatives sat to consider five bills, two committee reports, and two motions covering issues from railway safety to renewable energy and digital economy reform. The session came just one day after a deadly train accident on the Itakpe–Warri corridor, making a motion to investigate that crash one of the most urgent items on the agenda. The sitting also admitted a delegation of UK Members of Parliament to observe proceedings.
Here is a plain breakdown of what Nigeria's House of Representatives had lined up for Tuesday, 9 June 2026.
On bills, lawmakers were set to give a third reading — the final stage before a bill is passed — to a bill that would establish a Federal College of Agriculture in Kagarko, Kaduna State. Four other bills were scheduled for second reading, covering: a proposal to overhaul the Energy Commission of Nigeria and create renewable energy funds; a bill to protect the rights of people living with tuberculosis; a digital economy bill aimed at boosting trade and investment; and a sustainable finance bill targeting banks and financial institutions.
On committee reports, the Public Accounts Committee was to present findings on the Auditor-General's reports for the financial years 2020 and 2021, covering compliance failures across federal ministries and agencies. A joint committee also brought forward a report on amending the West African Gas Pipeline Project Act.
On motions, the most pressing was a call to investigate a train accident on the Itakpe–Warri line on 8 June 2026 that killed at least four people and injured many others. A second motion sought rehabilitation and solar street lighting for a deteriorating inter-state road linking Imo and Anambra States. Two UK Members of Parliament were also admitted to observe the plenary session.
