Plateau Assembly suspends two council chairmen - Daily Post Nigeria

Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Abok Ayuba, who announced the suspension during plenary, directed the affected chairmen to immediately handover to their deputies.Philip Dasun, said that the chairmen had been embroiled in some squabbles with their councillors.

Dasun explained that the State House of Assembly invited them and subsequently directed them on what to do but they refused to obey the directives.“They were directed to pay the entitlements owed councillors but they fail to do so. “In the case of Kanam, he even sacked the substantive Clerk of the House posted there by the House of Assembly Service Commission and refuse to reinstate him as directed,” he explained.

The Information Committee chairman maintained that the suspension of the Kwallu was not in connection with his senatorial ambition. Dasun said that it was Kwallu’s right to contest the seat since he hailed from the zone and that the House would not suspend him for exercising his political right.
