The three suspended members of the Ekiti State House of Assembly have been recalled.
Three lawmakers Mrs. Yemisi Ayokunle, Mr. Ajibade Raphael, and Mr. Tope Ogunleye were suspended from activities of the House following their roles in the stalling of the passage of the 2022 revised appropriation budget.
They were reinstated after the adoption of a motion moved by the Leader of the House, Mr. Bode Adeoye at plenary on Tuesday.
Mr. Biodun Fawekun seconded the motion which was unanimously adopted by members.
The Speaker of the House, Mrs. Olubunmi Adelugba had earlier read the letters of apology from the trio at the plenary.
The lawmakers apologized for not following the directive of the party, the All Progressive Congress on the choice of Speaker to replace the late Funminyi Afuye who died on Oct. 19 after a brief illness.
One of the suspended lawmakers, Mrs Kemi Balogun (Ado Constituency II) had earlier apologized and was reinstated on Monday.
With the lifting of the suspension, four of the suspended seven lawmakers have been reinstated.
The house adjourned sitting thereafter to allow the various Committees of the House to scrutinise the 2023 Appropriation for eventual passage.
