The Ogun Assembly today, sworn in Hon. Olakunle Sobukanla (APC-Ikenne) as a member of the 10th Assembly after the Court of Appeal annulled the election of Babajide Owoduni of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Sobukanla took the Oath of Office and Oath of Allegiance administered by the Deputy Clerk, Mrs Funmilayo Adeyemi, during plenary held at the Assembly Complex, Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta.

It would be recalled that the Court of Appeal sitting in Lagos had last November nullified the election of Owoduni and declared Sobukanla, who was also a member of the 9th legislature elected.

The Speaker, Rt. Hon. Oluomo on behalf of other lawmakers, congratulated Sobukanla for returning to the House of Assembly.

Speaking shortly after his swearing-in, Sobukanla promised to always remain a good representative of his constituents.

” I am elated, and very happy to be back to where I belong . My constituency should expect quality representation as usual. I thank Gov. Dapo Abiodun for his support,” he said.
