The Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, on Tuesday, administered the oath of office on PDP’s Senator Ibrahim Danbaba representing Sokoto South federal constituency.
The senator replaced Senator Shehu Abubakar Tambuwal, of the All Progressives Congress (APC) whose election was recently voided by the Court of Appeal.
The swearing-in of Danbaba brings the number of PDP Senators in the 9th Senate to 45, while the number of APC Senators is now 62 and the Young Progressives Party (YPP) with one Senator.
