This follows the lifting of the suspension on him by the House after his apology was considered.
Jibrin, who represents a federal constituency in Kano, was said to have apologized to the House.
The letter was not fully read before the parliament and that the speaker paraphrased it by saying he had apologised and met all the conditions given to him.
“He has fulfilled all the conditions by writing this letter and so he is free to resume his legislative duties whenever he wants, if he so wishes,” Dogara said.
Jibrin was suspended in 2017 for a period of 180 legislative days for ‘unfolding’ budget padding scandal in the legislature.
His suspension however lasted for more than the stipulated 180 legislative days which is equivalent to one year.
