By Levinus Nwabughiogu-Abuja 

The minority leader of the 9th House, Hon. Ndudi Elumelu of the People’s Democratic Party ( PDP) from Delta State and the deputy chief whip, Hon. Nkiruka Onyejiocha in Abia State have lost to the candidates of the Labour Party, Ngozi Okolie and Amobi Ogah.

On the other hand, the Speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila, the deputy speaker, Idris Wase, and the majority leader, Ado Doguwa, all made a comeback to the House.

In all, one significant thing no one can rule out is the fact that the incoming 10th Assembly would witness a deluge of new lawmakers and a couple of old ones who were not in the 8th and the outgoing 9th House.
