The bill to create another state in the South-East region has passed a second reading in the House of Representatives.
It seeks to create Etiti state from the five South-Eastern states and was sponsored by Amobi Ogah (LP, Abia), Miriam Onuoha (APC, Imo), Kama Nkemkama (LP, Ebonyi), Chinwe Nnabuife (YPP, Anambra), and Anayo Onwuegbu (LP, Enugu).
Ogah said the bill is meant to address the decades-long issue of regional parity and administrative efficiency in the South-East zone. It seeks to create the state from Anambra, Imo, Ebonyi, Abia, and Enugu.
During plenary on Thursday, the bill was passed for the next stage without debate by the lawmakers.
