Senators representing the North-Eastern part of the country are asking for the establishment of a Development Commission to address the issues of insurgency and its attendant crisis in the area.
Fidel-Castro Oseghale reports that as a result, eighteen senators representing the region yesterday in plenary submitted a bill entitled North East Development Bill 2015 to address such issues.
The bill which was sponsored by Senate Leader, Ali Ndume and seventeen others, stressed the urgent need for an act to establish a commission akin to the Niger Delta Development Commission, charged with the responsibility to receive and manage funds from allocation of the Federation Account.
