The Lagos State Government has faulted the National Assembly over the proposed Central Gaming Bill, warning that its passage would violate the Nigerian Constitution and a subsisting Supreme Court judgment.
Addressing a press conference, Lagos Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Lawal Pedro (SAN), declared the move by the National Assembly as a voyage of unconstitutionality.
According to a report by the National Assembly Library Trust Fund, the Central Gaming Bill, 2025 was presented for concurrence during Senate plenary on October 7, 2025.
However, Pedro warned that if the National Assembly proceeded with the Bill, the consequences will be grave.
