This significant development in education was made possible by Hon. Ahmed Yinka Aluko, PhD, who sponsored the bill and represents the Ilorin East/South Federal Constituency.
During the plenary session on October 24, 2024, Hon. Mukhtar Tolani Shagaya, representing the Asa/Ilorin West Federal Constituency, seconded the motion in favor of the bill.
