From Bashir Rabe Mani in Sokoto
Sokoto State House of Assembly on Thursday confirmed the appointment of Alhaji Nura Tangaza and Dr Bashir Achida, nominated as commissioners by Governor Ahmed Aliyu.
The 10th Assembly also adopted its Fourth Session legislative calendar during plenary.
The confirmation of the nominees followed their screening after a motion moved by the Majority Leader, Alhaji Bello Idris.
Presenting the motion, Idris said the governor forwarded the names of the nominees in line with Section 192 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended).
According to him, the nominees are persons of proven integrity who have served the state and the nation in various capacities.
“Their appointments would assist the governor in effectively discharging his constitutional responsibilities and was made after wide consultations across different segments of society and in compliance with Section 14(4) of the Constitution,” he said.
The Speaker, Alhaji Tukur Bala, later put the confirmation to a voice vote, which was unanimously approved by the lawmakers.
The two nominees are Alhaji Nura Tangaza and Dr Bashir Achida.
Speaking separately after their confirmation, the new commissioners expressed gratitude for the confidence reposed in them and pledged to support Gov. Aliyu in implementing development projects across the state.
Meanwhile, the Assembly also adopted the Fourth Session sitting calendar of the 10th Assembly, which will run from June 23, 2026, to May 27, 2027.
The adoption followed a motion moved by the Majority Leader and seconded by Kabiru Dauda (APC-Gada East).
Idris explained that the calendar was prepared in compliance with Section 104 of the 1999 Constitution, “which requires a House of Assembly to sit for not less than 181 days in a legislative year.”
He said the approved calendar provides for a total of 184 sitting days, with the first quarter commencing from June 23 to September 24, 2026, after which members will proceed on recess until October 12 to enable them visit their constituencies.
“The second quarter will run from October 13 to December 31, 2026, before another break for New Year celebrations and participation in activities related to the 2027 general elections.
“While the third quarter will commence on February 16, 2027, with an adjournment from February 25 to March 16 for members to perform Lesser Hajj and celebrate Eid-el-Fitr. This will be followed by a recess from March 26 to April 12, 2027,” he said.
Idris further explained that the fourth quarter will run from April 13 to May 27, 2027.
“During this period, the House will adjourn from May 6 to May 25 to allow members perform the Hajj pilgrimage and celebrate Eid-el-Kabir before proceeding on sine die adjournment on May 28, 2027,” he added.
The Speaker subsequently put the motion for the adoption of the calendar to a voice vote, and it was unanimously approved by the House.
