Following orders and ruling of the Court of Appeal, Lere Federal Constituency in Kaduna State have vowed to occupy the National Assembly should the Speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila fails to reinstate their Representative, Suleiman Aliyu Lere of the All Progressive Congress (APC) before January 8, 2021

The Speaker has also been asked to tender a written public apology to the people for shielding Lawal Muhammad Rabiu of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and denying their Representative to occupy his seat .

Briefing newsmen in Kaduna on Monday, Spokesman for Concerned Citizens from Lere Federal Constituency, Mr. Suleiman D. Lere recalled the “erroneous decision” of the Court of Appeal which led to the removal of their Rep for Lawal Muhammad Rabiu of PDP, but was successfully challenged in which the same Court set aside its “wrong” Judgement.

According to the Spokesman, a Certified copy of the enrolled Orders and ruling of the Court of Appeal was served on INEC, APC, Clerks of the NASS, House of Rep and the Speaker.
Subsequent upon, he said, INEC immediately complied and issued a new Certificate of Return to Suleiman Aliyu Lere thereby confirming the withdrawal of the nullified Certificate of Return issued to Rabiu Muhammed Lawal.

To this end, the Spokesman said all efforts including correspondence demanding compliance with the Court Order by the Speaker fell on deaf ears.
