The Speaker of the House, Hon. Funminiyi Afuye, clarified that the fact that Ekiti was the first to pass the bill into law, even when other states were still at the public hearing stage, doesn’t suggest there was a friction among the member states.

Bamidele Oleyeloogun, on Monday, said public hearing would be conducted simultaneously on February 24 in all the six states.
