Seven members of the Kaduna State House of Assembly opposed to recent leadership changes in the House have returned after three weeks boycott of the assembly's sittings.The seven were part of the 17 legislators supporting the former speaker, Alhaji Muazu Gangara, who was removed on September 24.

The seven lawmakers are Alhaji Shehu Adamu, Alhaji Balarabe Jigo, Mr Bitiyong Nkom, Alhaji Aminu Shagali, Mr Labari Tella, Mrs Esther Abbah and Mr Shaibu Tukura.

Today,the seven attended House sittings presided by the new Speaker, Alhaji Usman Tahir.
