Drama Imo Assembly impeaches Deputy Speaker
The Imo House of Assembly has impeached its deputy speaker, Mr Amarachi Iwuanyanwu (APC-Nwangele) from office.
This followed a resolution of the house at its Tuesday plenary in Owerri.
The Speaker, Mr
Paul Emeziem (APC-Onuimo) who announced the impeachment of Iwuanyanwu, failed,
however, to state why he was removed.
The house
also adopted a resolution recalling six lawmakers that were suspended on July 8
for unparliamentarily conduct.
This followed
the adoption of the report of its ad hoc committee set up to investigate the
allegations at the committee of the whole house.
The speaker
commended members of the house who deemed it necessary to bring back the
suspended lawmakers.
He charged the suspended lawmakers for remaining
law-abiding throughout the period of their suspension.
He urged
them to remember that the house was an institution of authority that would
remain for generations to come.
The Speaker
further commended Gov. Hope Uzodinma for being helpful in achieving the desired
reconciliation.
