“What we have done is to correct the wrongs and to respect the system not aimed at tempering with any democratic sitting. It is to serve as deterrent to others,” he said
“The House recommended to the effects that in view of the apology tendered as outright assurances of their utmost loyalty to the Government, the suspended Chairman of Nasarawa LGC, Hon Mohammed Sani Ottos and Deputy Chairman of Karu LGC, Hon Lawal Yakubu Karshi be pardoned and their suspension be lifted.
