The Kaduna State Government has said the first session of the 10th House of Assembly will hold on June 13, 2023.

This was contained in a statement signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Muhammad Lawal Shehu, and made available to newsmen in Kaduna on Monday.

The statement said this is coming after the dissolution of the 9th Assembly on Thursday, June 8, 2023 by the Kaduna State, Senator Uba Sani.

Accordingly, Governor Uba Sani is expected to deliver an address at the occasion, outlining his administration’s priorities for the new legislative term.

“The historic event marks a new chapter in the legislative history of Kaduna State and demonstrates the commitment of the government to uphold democratic principles and ensure good governance.

“This development follows the issuance of the proclamation instrument by the Governor, Senator Uba Sani, in exercise of the powers conferred upon him by Subsection (3) of Section 105 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended).

“The proclamation signifies the commencement of a new legislative session and sets forth an agenda for addressing pressing issues facing the people of Kaduna State.

“The first session will witness the swearing-in ceremony of the newly elected members and subsequent election of principal officers such as Speaker and Deputy Speaker.

“The first session of the 10th Assembly is an opportunity for all stakeholders to come together and work towards a brighter future for the people of Kaduna State,” it stated.
