Speaker
Yakubu Dogara has picked the nomination form to return to the House of
Representatives on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, multiple
sources familiar with the development told Premium Times.
The
speaker picked the form on Wednesday, a day after dozens of his constituents
travelled to Abuja from his home state of Bauchi.
Mr
Dogara told
his constituents during the rally, which held at his
residence in Abuja Tuesday, that he all but threw in the towel on partisan
politics — having served 12 years at the House, four out of which he spent as
Speaker — but their overwhelming demand forced his hands to continue his
lawmaking career.
