“If the commission is established through presidential assent to the bill, it will be like other development-driven commissions established on zonal basis.

“It will receive funds from the federation account, donations from development partners etc to address infrastructural deficits and tackle ecological problems in the region.”

Barau Jibrin, Deputy President of the Senate, said the commission would address the developmental issues in the south-west.

“President Bola Tinubu has assented to similar bills passed for zonal development-driven interventions and will surely assent to this one,” he said.

The bill passed third reading after the senators voted on the clauses of the legislation.

The upper legislative chamber had earlier st different times passed bills to establish the North West Development Commission, North Central Development Commission and South East Development Commission.
