former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has said that he will proceed to the Court of Appeal on Monday to appeal his sacking.
A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja had on Friday declared Dogara’s seat vacant for defecting from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress.
Dogara represents the Dass/Bogoro/Tafawa Balewa Constituency of Bauchi State in the National Assembly and will be ending his fourth term in June 2023.
The former Speaker’s media aide, Turaki Hassan, said in a statement that Dogara had asked his counsel to immediately appeal the judgment
Hassan quoted Usman as saying he had been instructed by the ex-Speaker to appeal the judgment with immediate effect.
He noted that the judgment has just been delivered and they have briefed their client right from the court and he has expressed dissatisfaction with the judgment and has instructed that they will file an appeal immediately, which we shall do on Monday.
