House of Reps retain Doguwa as majority leader

Following his victory in the House of Representatives rerun election in Tudun Wada/Doguwa federal constituency of Kano State, Alhassan Ado-Doguwa has been reinstated as the Leader of the House of Representatives.

“The APC has resolved to retain Honourable Alhassan Doguwa as the Leader of the House,” Mr Gbajabiamila declared, to the cheers of his colleagues and observers at the Chamber’s gallery.Not satisfied with his fate at the polls, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party , Yusha’u Salisu, filed a petition against Mr Ado-Doguwa to the National Assembly election tribunal.

Not convinced, Mr Salisu headed to the Court of Appeal. There, Mr Ado-Doguwa, in November last year, got the boot of the Court of Appeal in Kaduna. Being one of the oldest members of the House, having been elected for a fifth term, Mr Ado-Doguwa now would serve as the House Majority Leader, a position he initially held before his sack.
