Yobe State House of Assembly has commenced a public hearing on a bill establishing the Yobe Hisbah Commission.
Chiroma Buba, the Assembly’s Speaker, disclosed this while declaring the public hearing open on Thursday in Damaturu.
He said the bill had undergone first and second reading and would be sent to the appropriate committee of the house for in-depth legislative scrutiny.
Buba commended the executive arm of government for coming up with the bill.
“The Hisbah Commission will, Insha’Allah, sweep the state from all immoral acts and social vices,” he added.
