Former House of Representatives member for Jos South East Federal Constituency, Dachung Musa Bagos, made a shocking revelation about the aftermath of his sacking by the Appeal Court on Wednesday. In an exclusive interview on Channels TV Politics Today, he disclosed that four individuals from his constituency tragically passed away as a result of the distress caused by the court ruling.
Expressing his dismay, the former lawmaker lamented the erosion of public faith in the judicial system, likening his ousting to a military coup. He expressed, βWhat happened was just like a military coup. From the reaction you are just seeing from the street after sacking seven National Assembly members through the court and all of them are from the PDP, you will know that all of us won our elections with different margins. Mine was sixty-something thousand.β
Describing the harrowing impact of the ruling, Bagos revealed, βFour people died because of the shock. A woman was holding a baby when she heard the news. She slumped and was rushed to a hospital and she died. She had high BP. There was a shock on our side.β
