President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has transmitted two executive bills to the House of Representatives for consideration, including proposals to strengthen senior secondary education administration and reform Nigeria’s criminal justice system, while withholding assent to two amendment bills passed by the National Assembly.
The President’s letters were read during Wednesday’s plenary by the Speaker of the House, Tajudeen Abbas.
The first executive bill, titled the National Senior Secondary Education Commission (Amendment) Bill, 2026, seeks to strengthen the administration and governance of public senior secondary education across the country.
In his letter, President Tinubu said the bill was approved by the Federal Executive Council (FEC) on April 30, 2026, and subsequently vetted by the Federal Ministry of Justice in line with constitutional and legislative drafting standards.
