Tinubu signs South-west, South-south Development Commission Bills.

In a historic move towards balanced regional development, President Bola Tinubu has signed into law two landmark bills: the South-West Development Commission (SWDC) and South-South Development Commission (SSDC).

Senate President Godswill Akpabio announced the presidential assent during plenary, marking the completion of Nigeria’s geo-political development architecture.

This decisive action means all six of Nigeria’s geo-political zones now possess statutory development agencies, creating a uniform framework for addressing regional infrastructure and economic challenges.
