Benue State House of Assembly (BSHO) complex was on Friday sealed by heavily armed personnel of the Nigeria Police Force.

No reason was given for their action. Members were prevented from going into the Assembly complex.

A source in the Assembly disclosed that the decision by the police to prevent members from gaining access to the Assembly had to do with the controversy over the impeachment of the former speaker, Mr Terkimbir Ikyange, who was removed from office earlier in the week.

Ikyange had swiftly kicked against his impeachment saying the process of his removal is illegal.

More details soon…
