Eleven out of thirty-one elected lawmakers of the 9th Bauchi state house of assembly have elected a new speaker.

According to PUNCH, the lawmakers elected Abubakar Suleiman, lawmaker representing Ningi Central Constituency (APC), as speaker, on Thursday.

Danlami Kawule, assembly member representing Zungur/Galambi, was also elected as deputy speaker.

This comes after nine Edo house of assembly lawmakers said to be loyal to Godwin Obaseki, the governor, edged out their colleagues by taking oath of office “secretly”.

They were sworn in shortly after 15 others protested the delay in inaugurating the assembly, blaming it on an attempt by the governor to impose his loyalists as presiding officers.
