The Nigerian Peace Corps Establishment Bill, earlier passed by the House of Representatives on 29 February, 2024 and transmitted to the Senate for concurrence was read on the floor of the Senate and passed through first reading.

With this development, a motion for concurrence to be sponsored by the Senate Leader, Sen. Micheal Opeyemi Bamidele (Ekiti Central) will come up shortly to enable the Senate adopt the Bill in line with the extant rules of the National Assembly.

The Peace Corps of Nigeria established over 25 years ago by the National Commandant, Dr Dickson Akoh, is incorporated in Nigeria under the Company and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) and accorded the Federal Government recognition through the Federal Ministry of Youth Development and granted license to operate in the Country as a non-governmental organisation by the Federal Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning.

The bill was passed in the 8th Assembly but could not get presidential assent.
