The House of Representatives, during plenary on Thursday, adopted three Matters of Urgent Public Importance addressing disaster response, national security, and strategic infrastructure.

The resolutions include:

– National Security: House commends the coordinated efforts of security agencies in securing the release of abducted pupils and teachers in Oyo State, while urging sustained intelligence-driven operations to secure the freedom of all Nigerians still in captivity.

– Disaster Response: House seeks emergency relief and long-term flood mitigation for communities affected by flooding in Ile-Oluji and Okeigbo, Ondo State.

– Strategic Infrastructure: House orders a probe into the prolonged delay in executing the Langtang–Wase–Bashar Road and Bridge Project in Plateau State.

Together, these resolutions highlight the House’s commitment to protecting lives and communities, strengthening national security, ensuring accountability in public infrastructure delivery, and responding swiftly to humanitarian emergencies.

Following their adoption, the Matters were referred to the relevant House Committees to engage the responsible government agencies, conduct oversight, monitor implementation of the House’s resolutions, and report back to the House where necessary.
