The Kogi state House of Assembly has impeached the Speaker of the Assembly, Abdullahi Bello and ten other principal officers.

The Kogi state House of Assembly has been in disarray in the last few months over plan by some aggrieved members to remove the Speaker and other principal officers of the House.

The Speaker has been having a running battle with some lawmakers who had been plotting to remove him from office.

It is not clear how many lawmakers were at Tuesday morning’s sitting as the House was not set to sit until Thursday.

The Minority Leader of the assembly, Yori Afolabi, had previously warned against the desperate attempt to remove the leadership of the House, noting that the executive arm of government is dangling N15 million to any lawmaker who consents to the plot.

Meanwhile, the House of assembly have elected Lawal Jimoh to replace Mr Bellow as Speaker.

CONFIRMED!!!

One stupid thing about the states house of asembly members is that, they tend to throw away the sole aim why they are occupying that temporary seat, they pocket the constituency development funds given to them, they don't care about what happen in their constituencies. Bunch of heediots.

Hey yeah! Wonderful. Is it true?! Wonderful.

We will look into that after I finish this Casava bread.

All the assembly members are of no use to the people of the state, as they are mere rubber stamp arm of the government who like other Nigerian politicians are blinded by greed and self enrichment. At the end of four years you see them turn beggers if they dont return to the house.

This happens in virtually all the states in Nigeria. Ok, if this is true, then what is the essence of these executives? This state is presently battling with major disaster, and another awaiting tussle with a neighbouring state about oil. If all these could not occupy the agenda of the state politicians, there is no near-future hope for that state.

I'm sure the issue leading to this impeachment is due to unequall sharing of GMG. Our leaders don't fight for the masses but on how to amass illegal wealth. Leaders be ware, judgement will come very soon.

I know it will come to pass, he is the one that sopost to be in d government house... as it didn't work so hmmm

So Gov Wada have finally succeeded in his plan to remove the speaker, because of the election controversy that made the speaker acting Gov of the state. well i just hope this will not cause violent in kogi central again o. evil Igalas
