“The signatures of the 21 members that passed the votes of no-confidence in Kabiru Ibrahim, member representing Kware as Deputy House Leader, are hereby accepted.

“Consequently, we replace him with Alhaji Ibrahim Sarki as the new Deputy House Leader (APC- Sokoto North II),” he said.

In an interview with newsmen after the impeachment, the House Leader,< Alhaji Garba Bello (APC- Yabo), noted that the vote of no-confidence followed constitutional breaches by Ibrahim.

He accused Ibrahim of engaging in some political activities ahead of the 2019 General Elections in violation of INEC guidelines.

“Ibrahim arranged a delegation with other members to mobilise support of a governorship aspirant and as such he breached our Standing Orders.”
