Senate President Akpabio Denies Approval of 12 New States, Calls Reports Fake News
Senate President Godswill Akpabio dismissed reports suggesting the Senate had approved the creation of 12 new states, stating during a plenary session that the Senate “has not even concluded the processes of getting the final report for deliberation.”
He emphasized that no state creation proposals have reached the stage of final deliberation or been transmitted to state assemblies, as required by Nigeria’s constitutional amendment process.
