Talakawa’s Parliament expressed their displeasure over the attack on Hon Razor Momoh representing Estako West 1. The statement signed by Marxist Kola Edokpayi, its President called on the people to henceforth reject the honorable members.
In their demands, they stated that since the lawmakers have decided to misbehave, the citizens should reject them by voting them out in 2015.
