                    [Summary] => 



A former congressman reclaimed his seat after the House of Representatives Electoral Tribunal (HRET) ruled in his favor and declared him the rightful winner in the May 2004 congressional elections in Tawi-Tawi.


Rep. Nur Jaafar, who unseated his rival, Anuar Abubakar, 10 months before the May 2007 mid-term polls, said he has taken his oath of office as the lone Tawi-Tawi representative before Speaker Jose de Venecia.


The Muslim lawyer, a member of Lakas-CMD, said he intends to join the House committees on Muslim affairs, justice and labor and employment.

In a 28-page decision, the nine-man HRET annulled Abubakar’s proclamation by the provincial board of canvassers, ruling that his winning margin of 2,040 votes was just a "presumptive lead." 


"The plurality of votes belongs to Jaafar who garnered 27,257 votes as against Abubakar who obtained 25,705 votes," it said.
