Yakubu Danladi, a 34-year-old
graduate of Kaduna Polytechnic, has been elected speaker of the Kwara state house
of assembly.
Danladi, who represents
Ilesha-Gwanara constituency, was elected unopposed on Tuesday.
He was nominated by Saheed
Popoola of Balogun-Ojomu constituency, Offa local government area of the state.
The development comes one day
after Abok Ayuba, a 33-year-old final year student of the University of Jos,
emerged speaker of the Plateau state house of assembly, and Debo Ogundoyin, a
32-year-old lawmaker from Ibarapa east constituency, was elected speaker of the
Oyo state house of assembly.
Their emergence followed the
passage of the “Not Too Young To Run” bill which reduced the age limit for
members of state house of assembly from 30 years to 25 years.
