October 29, (THEWILL) – The House Committee on Public Petitions has assured Nigerians of better days on its plan to respond speedily to public complaints.
Chairman, Committee on Public Petitions, Mike Etaba, said this at a Strategy and Capacity Building retreat in Abuja
The retreat was organised by Policy and Legal Advocacy Centre (PLAC), with support from European Union Support for Democratic Governance in Nigeria Programme Phase II.
Etaba commended PLAC for the initiative, adding that the committee would do justice to Nigerians and make them understand how to resolve their complaints through the House of Representatives public petitions.
“If you have any issue in respect of any kind of what you might be going through, what you need to do is to put up a petition to the House via the member representing you or submit it to the speaker’s office or my office.
“We will transmit it to the House to take it to the floor and now you don’t need money to fund your petition.”
Etaba said that the House Committee on Public Petitions was fully funded by the House of Representatives and the speaker was also working so hard to make sure that Nigerians got justice.
