Four members of the Imo State House of Assembly who were suspended over one year ago have been reinstated.
The reinstated lawmakers comprising Hon Sam Nkem…Otuibe,, representing Ahiazu Mbaise State Constituency, Hon Dr Henry Agbasonu of Ezinihitte Mbaise State Constituency, Hon Chidiebere Samuel Ogbunkpa of Okigwe State Constituency and Barr Dominic Ezerioha, representing Oru West State Constituency were reinstated yesterday.
A cross section of Imo people who reacted to the development expressed delight that they have finally been reinstated. They however, expressed dismay over the loss their respective constituencies suffered as a result of the lack of representation in the state legislature which is their bonafide right as citizens. How will their lack of representation be quantified and how will they recoup it for the period their representatives were suspended”.
