He stated that alternative provisions will be made available, and that those who have contributions to the infectious disease bill should send it to the House, as usual public hearing format is not tenable right now.
It would be recalled that the infectious disease bill which was sponsored by Gbajabimaila scaled second reading last week Tuesday, however, the bill is currently getting negative reactions, particularly on the aspect of mandatory vaccination and allegation of plagiarism. This was contained in his address on Tuesday. He stated that the House will consider all contributions before putting the bill up for committee of the whole’s consideration.
“The social distancing guidelines under which this House and the whole country operates for the time being means that the usual format of public hearings is not tenable. If a socially distant public hearing becomes workable, we will certainly explore that option.
“There are no limits set to the thoughts and imaginations that should animate the conversations about our nationhood. Yet, these conversations must be factual and informed rather than conspiratorial and divisive. All Nigerians must ensure that the views we share publicly are well-informed so that we can more effectively resist the winds of false doctrine that debase this collective enterprise of democratic governance.
