On the floor of the House of Representatives today, Femi Gbajabiamila, the former speaker and new chief of staff, is anticipated to announce his resignation as a member, according to Channels Television.
The former Speaker has been named President Bola Tinubu’s chief of staff on June 2.
Remember that on February 25, Gbajabiamila of the All Progressives Congress, APC, won the Surulere I Federal Constituency election for the sixth time prior to his appointment.
The former Speaker was inaugurated alongside his colleagues for the 10th Assembly on Tuesday, thus his recent appointment had sparked questions about how he would manage both roles.
According to Channels, the lawmaker will on Wednesday (today) tender his resignation after which the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, may conduct a fresh election to fill the role.
