Court of Appeal dismisses Bauchi speaker
Speaker of Bauchi state house of assembly, Abubakar Suleiman, has been dismissed by the Abuja Court of Appeal.
The appeal that removed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) member as lawmaker representing Ningi Central Constituency in Ningi Local Government Area of the state on Friday, November 24, has ordered a rerun in 10 polling units in the constituency following an appeal filed by Khalid Abdulmalik- Ningi of the All Progressive Congress.
Suleiman, who reacted to the judgment, said the support and solidarity he has enjoyed in Ningi remains intact, adding that no effort to oust him will succeed.
Describing the trial as a small political setback that is not new in his political career, the President said he is always ready for a new election.
