Rep. Farouk Lawan, (PDP, Kano), suspended ad hoc committee Chairman on Oil Subsidy and Committee Chairman on Education backed the House of Representatives' stand on his suspension stating that if it'd been another member intricated in his travails, he would've taken the same stance with his colleagues.
Lawan however, exuded confidence that he'd get through and that God will vindicate him at the end of investigations. He noted this while attending a plenary session of the House for the first time since the scandal became public wherein he descibed his travails as a "trial from God".
Addressing press men at the entrance of the House, the beleaguered legislator pointed out, "I think it is important to note that I have been a member of the House of Representatives for the past 13 years. Of course, together with several other colleagues of mine, past and present, I have done so much to build the House of Representatives.
"The decision of the House of Representatives is a collective decision and I have absolutely no problem with that decision,"
Continuing, "I will be vindicated. I just urge Nigerians to continue to be patient, I have not spoken on the issue for strategic reasons; this last trial is a trial from God and I believe in the end we shall prevail."
Amidst the seemingly incontrovertible evidence, I still reserve a river of doubt as to the culpability of Lawan in the whole saga. I pray the real truth emerges ultimately and soon.
