A bill seeking to remove the immunity granted to the vice president, governors, and their deputies passed its second reading in the House of Representatives on Wednesday.
The proposal is designed to curb corruption, tackle impunity, and improve accountability in public office.
Currently, the immunity clause protects the vice president, governors, and their deputies from legal action while in office.
