which were declared vacant in December 2019 by the Speaker, Frank Okiye.
Azegbiemi, in a television interview monitored in Benin on Sunday, said the party would formally write INEC to conduct a fresh election to fill the vacant seats, saying people in the constituencies were being denied representation in the state House of Assembly. He said, “We are very worried because about a million people have lost their voices in the House of Assembly…and we want them to be represented. We are going to write INEC officially to carry out its constitutional responsibility by conducting by-election in these 14 constituencies.”But an aide to one of the members, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said, “You cannot declare a seat that was not occupied vacant. The issue is already in court.”All rights reserved.
