| Hon. Abel Peter Diah |
Dr Mark after vacating his seat as the speaker of the House nominated
Hon. Abel Peter Diah of PDP Mbamnga constituency, and was seconded by
Kizito Bonzena, PDP Zing constituency, respectively.
Diah in his acceptance speech expressed gratitude to the members for
finding him worthy to occupy the position for the second time, stressing
that he will run an open, transparent and accountable Assembly that
would benefit all Tarabans. LEADERSHIP recalls that the court of appeal
sitting in Yola earlier nullified the electoral victory of Mr. Abel
Peter Diah and ordered for a fresh supplementary election that later
brought him back as a member.
