The development followed letters from their wards which were addressed to the Chairman of All Progressives Congress, APC, Mr Ade Adetimehin and subsequently forwarded to the state Assembly.
The Speaker, Mr Bamidele Oleyelogun, who read the letter through the clerk of the House, Mr Taye Benjamin, declared their seats vacant and ordered that a letter be forwarded to the Independent Electoral Commission, INEC.
