The report on the Electoral Act Amendment Bill was presented to the House of Representatives on Wednesday.
The bill was presented to the House by the Chairperson of the Committee on Electoral Matters, Aisha Dukku (APC, Gombe).
In December 2020, A public hearing on the bill was conducted by the joint committees of the National Assembly on INEC and Electoral Matters.
Then, the report of the committee was scheduled for presentation in February this year.
However, it was postponed due to the All Progressives Congress (APC) membership revalidation exercise.
There was another attempt to present the report in March but it was stepped down for further consultation.
The postponements created apprehension among Nigerians over the fate of the bill.
