 BENUE ASSEMBLY RECALLS REMAINING 7 SUSPENDED LAWMAKERS


22nd July, 2025     


The Benue State House of Assembly on Tuesday recalled the remaining seven lawmakers who were suspended in February 2025, bringing to a close a months-long disciplinary episode that had drawn wide public attention.


Those recalled include Hon. Douglas Akya (Makurdi South), Hon. Mrs. Becky Orpin (Gboko East), Hon. Manger Manger (Tarka), Hon. Ezrah Nyiyongu (Ukum), Hon. Jonathan Agbidye (Katsina Ala East), and Hon. Samuel Agada.


Their return follows the recall of six of their colleagues last month. According to the House, the seven lawmakers demonstrated remorse and pledged to conduct themselves honorably moving forward.


During plenary, the Majority Leader, Comr. Saater Tiseer, read the letter requesting their recall. The motion received broad support from members, including Hon. Bemdoo Ipusu and Hon. Elias Audu, who acknowledged the lawmakers’ contrition and urged forgiveness.


Members of the Assembly commended the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Hyacinth Aondona Dajoh, and the House leadership for what they described as a magnanimous handling of the situation.


The recall marks a significant moment of reconciliation within the Assembly, reinforcing internal unity ahead of critical legislative business in the months ahead.
