The Adamawa State House of Assembly has passed a bill for a law to amend the Adamawa State Local Government Administration Law to provide for the appointment of transition committees for all the 21 local government councils in the State.

The passage of the bill during Tuesday plenary session followed its presentation for third reading by the Majority Leader of the House, Hon Hammantukur Yettisuri, and seconded by the member representing Demsa constituency, Mrs Kate Raymond Mamuno.

The Majority Leader explained that the bill, if assented to by the Executive arm and it becomes law, would pave way for the appointment of transition committees to run the LGAs pending the conduct of election into councils by the State Independent Electoral Commission (ADSIEC).

The bill, he added, provides for the composition and tenure of the transition committees to include: the Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary, Representative of each ward (one of whom must be a woman) and four supervisors.
