After the swearing-in ceremony, Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila said the APC had unanimously resolved that Doguwa should be returned as House Leader.
Consequently, the Speaker invited the Chief Whip, Tahir Monguno, to usher Doguwa to his seat as House Leader.
The House in the aftermath of the nullification of Ado-Doguwa’s election and of other members had resolved that their positions would not be filled by others until the outcome of their re-elections. Former chairman of the House Committee on Public Petitions, Jerry Alagbaso of the PDP from Orlu, Orsu and Oru-East federal constituency who as also re-elected was, however, not among those sworn-in at yesterday’s plenary.
