Minister of water resources, Suleiman Adamu has disclosed that efforts are ongoing to ensure that the water resources bill is passed in 2022.<\/p>\n

This was disclosed on Thursday by Adamu while\u00a0featuring on \u2018Good Morning Nigeria\u2019, a Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) programme.<\/p>\n

In 2020, Nigerians had expressed reservations over the bill on the grounds that certain provisions of the proposed legislation will give the federal government undue control over water resources.<\/p>\n

Recall that the minister in August 2021 had said\u00a0the controversy generated over the bill was caused by \u201cdeliberate misinformation\u201d.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the latest development regarding the bill, Adamu said the proposed law is important to solve the problems of water supply<\/a> across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have explained all that we need to explain and the national assembly is fully aware because we have engaged them. They have seen all the merits and all the issues that have been put on the public domain have been debunked as false and misleading,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have engaged with the governors\u2019 forum and several groups. After all said and done, we invited legal consultants that are experts in environmental law within the country and we gave them the bill to review and they told us there is nothing wrong with the bill.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also sent it back to the attorney-general. We asked him to look at the issues again and advise us. And the advice had come, so, we are gathering everything and sending it back to the national assembly.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe proposed certain changes basically in terms of semantics and all the issues that the major stakeholders have been concerned about have been addressed, and I believe that this year, this bill will be passed.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
