The process and constitutional requirements for recalling lawmakers are too stringent, thus making it virtually impossible to successfully recall even a Ward Councillor

When Dogara decamped to PDP with APC mandate. There was no problem. Cross carpeting is allowed in politics, even in US they cross carpet. It is left for we the electorates not to vote them.

Technically, according to the Constitution, Section 68.1:
A member of the Senate or of the House of Representatives shall vacate his seat in the House of which he is a member if:
g). being a person whose election to the House was sponsored by a political party, he becomes a member of another political party before the expiration of the period for which that House was elected:
Provided that his membership of the latter political party is not as a result of a division in the political party of which he was previously a member or of a merger of two or more political parties or factions by one of which he was previously sponsored; or
h.the President of the Senate or, as the case may be, the Speaker of the House of Representatives receives a certificate under the hand of the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission stating that the provisions of section 69 of this Constitution have been complied with in respect of the recall of that member.


He has not fulfilled any of these three loopholes, and so therefore, they should recall his ass. This is what we mean by the citizens not exercising their rights and powers. Then they wonder when politicians run roughshod over them. As usual, nothing will happen, for this is Nigeria.

Very nice
As far as parliamentry is concerned, the party won the election and not the candidate
Although a candidate can defect but only if there is a crisis in his party
In the case of Dogara, I see none
What is good for the goose, is also good for the gander, same should apply to Obaseki.
