The 9th has reconstituted its committees, appointing new leaders in accordance with Article 103 of the 1992 Constitution, Order 204 of the Standing Orders, and established parliamentary practices.
The committees compositions reflect the diverse perspectives within the chamber.
Notably, four women lawmakers have been appointed to chair major committees, marking a significant step forward in advancing gender equality and breaking traditional barriers, particularly as this development coincides with the season of the celebration of International Women's Day.
These appointments have generated positive feedbacks and have become a beacon of hope for other women.
