Just in: Delta state assembly speaker impeached

Speaker of the Delta state house of assembly, Monday Igbuya, has been impeached over allegations of “financial misappropriation and highhandedness.”

Twenty-two of the 29 members of the house voted against him

Igbuya has been replaced by Sheriff Oborevwori, member representing Okpe Constituency.

The assembly had suspended Igbuya since three months ago, while the former majority leader of the house who has now been replaced by Johnson Erijo was handed an indefinite suspension.
