The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has removed Ado Doguwa’s name from the newly released list of elected House of Representatives members.
It will be recalled that INEC had previously declared Doguwa, a member of the All Progressives Congress, as the winner of the February 25 election in the Doguwa/Tudunwada constituency.
He received 39,732 votes, defeating the candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party, Yushau Salisu Abdullahi, who received 34,798 votes.
Doguwa was remanded in prison custody by a Kano chief magistrates’ court on Wednesday.
