The Court of Appeal sitting in Kaduna on Monday sacked a member representing Tudunwada/Doguwa Federal Constituency in the House of Representative, Alhassan Ado Doguwa.
Honourable Alhassan Ado Doguwa is the current majority leader of the House of Representatives.
The court however ordered a fresh vote within ninety days.
The court ruled that Honourable Doguwa’s election was marred by irregularities; in a case brought by the candidate of the PDP.

This is at variance with the ruling of the Election Petition Tribunal which earlier affirmed Honourable Doguwa’s election.
This is the second loss of a House seat by an APC lawmaker in one week.
