In a much-awaited move, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has finally released the complete list of the members-elect for the 10th House of Representatives. This announcement was made today, March 7, 2023, following the conclusion of the National Assembly elections which were held on February 25, 2023, alongside the presidential elections.
The newly elected members of the House of Representatives comprise both fresh faces and returning familiar ones who will occupy the Red and Green chambers of the legislative arm of government. The release of the full list has been keenly anticipated by many Nigerians, who have been eagerly awaiting the composition of the new House of Reps.
Of particular note are the 34 members of the Labour Party, who emerged victorious over their rivals from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). These members of the Labour Party succeeded in clinching seats for themselves and their party in the National Assembly, which will undoubtedly be a boost for the party’s profile and influence in the legislative arm of government.
The list, which includes the names of all 360 members-elect of the House of Representatives, has been published on INEC’s official website and can be accessed by the public. With this development, preparations are now underway for the inauguration of the 10th House of Representatives, which promises to be a significant moment in the history of Nigeria’s democracy.
As Nigerians look forward to the inauguration of the new House of Representatives, the hope is that the lawmakers will prioritize the interests of the Nigerian people and work tirelessly towards promoting the growth and development of the country.
