Appeal Court Ruling: Kwara Assembly Bars PDP Lawmaker

Members of the Peoples Democratic Party in Kwara state, on Tuesday, stormed the state House of Assembly to protest alleged refusal of leadership of the House from allowing winner of the Ilorin South state constituency, Mallam Abdulraheem Agboola, to enter the Assembly.

Recalled that Agboola recently won his case at the Appeal Court, thereby unseating the legislator earlier declared winner by the INEC, Hassan Abdulazeez. Speaking with journalists at the Assembly complex, Agboola said that the House denied him entry since he got certificate of return from the INEC, last Thursday.

“As we all know, Appeal court is the last destination for the House of Assembly election petition process. Its ruling has declared me winner. I started from the tribunal. I have my certificate of return from the INEC national headquarters, Abuja. The INEC in Kwara did the official presentation. According to the process, I have to come to the House in person to do documentation with the clerk of the House in order to ratify, verify, genuineness of the certificate.

APCNigeria government of disobedient to the rule of the law..This man has been declared winner and certificate of return issued to him..DrAhmadLawan tell speaker of the Kwara state House of Assembly to swear in this man.
