A bill seeking to strip the vice president, governors, and their deputies of immunity passed its second reading in the House of Representatives on Wednesday.
The proposed legislation was among 42 constitutional amendment bills approved for the second reading on the floor of the green chamber.
Aimed at curbing corruption, eliminating impunity, and promoting accountability in public office, the bill removes immunity protections previously granted to these officials.
This development follows the approval of 39 other constitutional amendment bills, which advanced to the second reading in the green chamber on Tuesday.
