On a motion by Frederick Yeitiemone Agbedi, the House of Representatives resolved to set up an ad hoc committee to investigate the non-implementation and non-remittance of the 5 percent user charge on the pump price of petrol and diesel that the FERMA (Amendment) Act 2007 sets aside for road maintenance, 40 percent for FERMA and 60 percent for state road maintenance agencies. The motion recalled that in 2016 the Senate Committee on Works had ordered the defunct PPPRA to remit ₦634 billion owed for 2007 to 2015. In July 2025 the ad hoc committee inaugurated two stakeholder committees on the collection and disbursement of the levy.
