#PlenaryHighlights: Wednesday, December 10, 2025
The House of Representatives on Wednesday adopted five pivotal motions aimed at strengthening fiscal accountability, improving retirement security, enhancing national logistics infrastructure, deepening civic recognition, and safeguarding public assets.
The most consequential decision was the summons issued to the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria to appear before the House on December 16, 2025. Findings of the Public Accounts Committee indicate that the CBN allegedly owes the Federal Government more than ₦11 trillion in unremitted operating surplus and other revenue discrepancies.
On retirement security, the House initiated steps to reform the Contributory Pension Scheme, noting that it has not shielded retirees from harsh economic conditions or provided the expected transparency and stability.
To boost economic diversification and reduce congestion at Lagos ports, the House called for the expedited decentralisation and optimisation of national port operations.
To strengthen civic unity and honour national sacrifice, the House urged the Federal Government to declare January 15 a National Public Holiday in recognition of the Nigerian Armed Forces.
The House also moved to safeguard public safety and public assets in the Federal Capital Territory by addressing the indiscriminate sale of land and the mining of protective sand hills in FHA and ENL Estates in Guzape.
