The seven-member investigative panel constituted by the acting Chief Judge of Adamawa State, Ambrose
Mammadi, to investigate allegations of gross misconduct
by Governor Murtala Nyako, commenced sitting on
Monday.
The panel ignored the directive of the state government
which had on Sunday declared Monday and Tuesday as
public holidays.
Mr. Nyako had declared the holiday to allow citizens
pray for peace in the state, but critics said it was aimed at
stopping Mr. Mammadi from inaugurating the panel he
appointed last Friday.
Mr. Mammadi’s tenure as chief judge ends on Monday,
while the panel was expected to be inaugurated on
Monday. No public inauguration was done.
Speaking to journalists on Monday, the Registrar of the
State High Court, Abubakar Babayola, said the
inauguration of the committee is a mere ceremony and
not a constitutional requirement.
Mr. Babayola signed the Friday statement, on behalf of
the acting Chief Judge, announcing the composition of
the committee.
“The Hon. Acting Chief Judge Hon. Justice Ambrose D.
Mammadi by the powers vested in him under Section
185(5) of the 1999 constitution as (amended) has
approved the appointment of seven (7) Man Panel to
investigate allegations of Gross Misconduct of the
Executive Governor of Adamawa State Admiral Murtala
Nyako and the Deputy Governor of Adamawa State Mr.
Bala Ngilari,” the registrar had said.
The committee is chaired by Buba Kaimaga from Mubi
Northern Zone.
The other members are Laraba Hassan, Michika
Northern Zone; Njidda Kito, Song Central Zone; Joshua
Abu, Hong Central Zone; Binanu Esthon, Guyuk Southern
Zone; Sa’ad Lawan, Mayo-Belwa, Southern Zone; and
Esthon Gapsiso, Genye Southern Zone.
The registrar had said the committee members would be
sworn-in at a later, unannounced date.
However, as at 3:00 p.m. on Monday, the committee was
sitting amidst tight security at J & J Holiday Villa located
at Atirwucha close in Karewa GRA, Yola.
It is not clear if Messrs. Nyako and his deputy, Bala
Ngilari, will appear before the committee to clear
themselves of the allegations.
Twenty of the 25 lawmakers in the state had, as part of
the impeachment proceedings, asked the chief judge to
set up the committee. PremiumTimes BREAKING: Nyako Impeachment: Investigative Panel begins sitting http:///20hvIDiTPP"
