The Committee on Tourism chaired by Senator Ireti Kingibe and that of Diaspora and Non-Governmental Organisations headed by Sen. Victor Umeh, led in submitting their reports.

In his remarks, Adeola who urged all the sub-committees to keep to the deadline and by so doing, ensure that the National Assembly would meet the January-December budget cycle, said, “I am appealing to all my colleagues; I am ready and the deadline is Wednesday this week to receive all reports, all standing committees of the senate.

“By Wednesday, any agency or any committee that has not submitted their report before the committee, it is assumed that you are giving us the omnibus power to go ahead and treat your budget independently of that committee.

“So, we are appealing to all chairmen of various committees to please submit their reports on or before Wednesday this week.”
