I STILL REMAIN THE DEPUTY SPEAKER OF THE 7TH ABIA STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY.


Today I read with amusement my purported suspension and removal/impeachment as the Deputy Speaker of the 7th Abia State House of Assembly by 6 of my colleagues.

I wish to inform the General Public that the said impeachment is null, illegal and can best be described as an effort in furtility. This is based on the fact that Rt. Hon. Chinedu Enyinnaya Orji who precided over the plenary had already been removed as the Speaker of the Abia State House of Assembly before my alleged removal.

His removal/impeachment was based on allegations of gross misconduct and abuse of office. Consequently, Rt. Hon. Chukwudi Apugo (Member Representing Umuahia East State Constituency), was elected as the new Speaker by Majority of Members of the House. 

Section 92: 2c of the Nigerian Constitution clearly stated it that “The Speaker or Deputy Speaker of the House of Assembly shall vacate his Office if he is removed from Office by a resolution of House of Assembly by the *votes of not less than two-third majority* of the members of the House.

All security heads and Service Commanders in the state has already been put on notice of the change of leadership of the House of Assembly. 

Thank You.
