The Legislative Arm of the Government at the State level is called the House of Assembly. This arm of government is primarily responsible for developing laws focused on the progress and well being of the State. The people elect members of the House of Assembly and they represent their State Constituencies at the State. This arm serves as a watchdog for other arms of government particularly the Executive, against recklessness and bad governance.
Other provisions can be seen in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
