Honourable Elvert Ayambem has insisted that he remains the Speaker of the Cross River State House of Assembly.Ayambem was impeached by 17 out of 25 members of the Cross River State House of Assembly during plenary on Wednesday.
He said the House was not aware of any impeachment notice being served to anyone before what happened during Wednesday’s plenary.Insisting that the impeachment and replacement are speculative, Okache urged the general public to dismiss what he described as fake news and dismiss any notion of a crisis.
“To be clear, the Speaker of the Cross River State House of Assembly is without a doubt Rt. Hon Elvert Ayambem, and that is the current position. What happened earlier today during the plenary, when Hon. Effiong Akarika, a member representing Calabar South 1, disrupted the session by inviting hoodlums to enter the chamber, which is a ridiculous charade with no constitutional basis.
