The Presidency on Wednesday said President Muhammadu Buhari is yet to receive a copy of the Petroleum Industry Governance Bill recently passed into law by the National Assembly.
The position of the Presidency was made known by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Matters (Senate), Senator Ita Enang.
The harmonised version of the bill was passed by the National Assembly on March 28.
The statement by Enang reads: “Further to several enquiries by the media, interest groups, and the public in respect of the named bill, may I please state that the said bill has not yet been transmitted by the National Assembly to the President.
“From my enquiries, the bill is still undergoing standard operating legislative processes of the National Assembly preparatory to transmission, please.”
