Question that the matter beconsidered as one of urgent public importance - Agreed to.

Question that the House do suspend Order Eight, Rule 4 (3) to enable it debate the matter forthwith - Agreed to.

Call to Constitute the North East Development Commission (NEDC):

The House:

Notes that the North East region has been ravaged by violent insurgency for almost a decade now;

Also notes that the insurgency by extremist Boko IIararn terrorists has devastated mostly Borno, Yobe and Adamawa States in the period;

Further notes that it is estimated that no fewer than 100,000 people lost their lives, with over 3 million displaced as refugees in neighbouring countries of Niger, Chad and Cameroon as Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in various camps across the country;

Concerned that over $20 billion dollars worth of properties have been destroyed;

Also concerned that most public institutions such as schools, hospitals, markets, prisons, police formation, military barracks and other security establishments had been totally razed down;

Further concerned that in recognition of the enormous challenges confronting the country especially the North East, the House of Representatives set in motion measures aimed at addressing these challenges early in the life of this Assembly when the Rt. Hon. Speaker, Yakubu Dogara, personally, and along with 300 other members sponsored the motion on the urgent need for the rehabilitation, reconstruction, resettlement and recovery of the North East region;

Recalls that the Speaker has also been visiting different lDP camps across the country, donating relief materials and even paid examination fees for scores of IDP children;

Also recalls that the Speaker personally sponsored the North East Development Commission establishmenf'Bill, 2015; 481 No. 10 Tuesday, 24 .July, 2018

Further recalls that the Bill was passed by both the Senate and House of Representatives on January 13, 2017. However, the Executive expressed reservations with some aspects of the Bill as a result of which it was returned to the National Assembly for further legislative input;

Aware that the Bill was further considered and all areas of concern to the Executive were adequately taken care of consequent upon which it was retransmitted back to the President in September 2017 for his assent;

Also aware that the President assented to the Bill on October 25, 2017. This finally birthed the long-awaited and highly anticipated Commission that will kick-start and pioneer the onerous task of rebuilding and rehabilitating the violence ravaged region;

Further aware that one month after the Bill was assented to, His Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, presented the 2018 Appropriations Bill before the Joint Session of the National Assembly and budgeted the sum of f'it45 billion for the North East Intervention Fund;

Disturbed that the National Assembly having worked on the budget and the President signed the Appropriations Bill into law on June 20,2018 and nine months after signing into law the NEDC Act, and one month after signing the 2018 budget into law, the President is yet to constitute the Commission;

Worried that the delay in setting up the NEDC is coming at a time the scale of humanitarian crisis in the North East is increasing exponentially following renewed attacks by the insurgents; there is therefore the urgent need to set up the commission so as to kick-start the work of rebuilding the region in earnest;

Resolves to: " Urge the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, to as a matter of urgency , constitute the North East Development Commission (NEDC) without further delay (Hon. Abdussamad Dasuki - Kebbe/Tambuwa! Federal Constituency).
