This followed disagreements among members on a section of the bill.
The Majority leader of the house, Henry Okhuarobo representing Ikpoba-Okha constituency moved a motion for the house to dissolve into the committee of the whole for clause by clause consideration of the bill.
The motion was seconded by the member representing Igueben, Sunday Ojiezele.
During the clause by clause consideration of the bill, the member representing Esan North East 1, Francis Okiye, proposed an amendment that the appointment of the general manager of the agency should be subject to confirmation of the assembly.
Okiye’s proposal did not go down well with some members who objected to it, saying that the appointment of general managers of agencies in the state had never been referred to the house for confirmation
