A section of residents in North Imenti Constituency has begun collecting signatures in a bid to recall the area Member of Parliament, Rahim Dawood.

The residents cited four reasons for their move to recall the MP, who is currently serving his third consecutive term as North Imenti's representative.

Among the reasons given was Dawood's vote in support of the 2024 Finance Bill, which went against the wishes of his constituents.

Another was the MP's failure to exercise his oversight role by not condemning or raising questions in Parliament regarding the ongoing abductions and murders in the country, and in North Imenti in particular.
