[b]TWO councillors, yesterday, sustained serious injuries in Ugwolawo, headquarters of Ofu Local Government Area of Kogi State as heavy fighting broke out among the legislators over alleged moves to impeach the chairman of the council.

Peters Enejo seeking to remove him from office over what they described as his “woeful performance in the last two years as chief executive of the council”.

The impeachment notice signed by two third of members of the council also alleged that the chairman had failed to tell them the correct monthly allocations accruable to the council since he took over the mantle of leadership in the area.

They also accused him of high-handedness and abuse of office as he allegedly dips his hands into the council’s purse without recourse to the legislators, allegations which he denied as baseless and unfounded.

There was, however, a twist in the crisis as some of the legislators, yesterday, opted out of the decision feigning ignorance of the alleged impeachment moves, a development that infuriated some of the legislators leading to a free-for-all.[/b]

Bull shit

This is an absolute disgrace, lunatics,

The chairman must have been using a "remote control" on these dis-honourable men. That's is my own feeling

they're only showing their true colors. shameless thieves! fighting
over who is to share the loot !

Bunch of morons. All they ever fight for is % allocation sharing formula. We never hear them fighting for the things they were elected to do.

Don't mind them.
I hate our govt so much my blood boils whenever these things come up.
It's NEVER about their duties but their share of the loot and they go as far as exchanging blows for it.
Imagine how deep the corruption runs.
Hate it hate it hate it.

OMG!

Guys, don't be surprised if, come December, those councillors' names came up as recipients of The National Merit Award.

They're representing their respective wards with their FISTs.

@Topic
That is what you get when you make ladder carriers and roadside touts councillors

yes. and not only councilors but senators and house of reps. the dishonorable men
have made exchanging of blows a normal feature of their loot meetings!

They need to start carrying guns into all these meetings, so that they could finally start to eliminate one another little by little.

Oh Bleep me. Aint no one blaming the West yet? Or the white man?

and elections are not yet around the corner o!

Politicians and power/money. It all comes down to the money

i wonder what blows they will be exchanging next when there will be
no more loot to share
