About

The Kaduna State House of Assembly is the unicameral legislature of Kaduna State in Nigeria. It is made up of a speaker, a deputy speaker and 34 members elected from the state's constituencies, who represent the 23 local government councils in the state.

History

The assembly traces its origins to the period of the British colonial government of Nigeria (1914-1954) and the defunct Northern Nigeria (1954-1967), when the building at Lugard Hall served as the legislative house where laws for the region were made. The Kaduna State House of Assembly in the Fourth Nigerian Republic began on 3 June 1999, and the first assembly, whose full life span was democratic, ended on 3 June 2003. The second assembly commenced on 6 June 2003 after the national election.
