Benue Assembly Removes APC Member As Speaker

The Benue State House of Assembly has impeached Honourable Terkimbi
Ikyange, as its speaker.

Ikyange who is a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), was
impeached after a motion of no confidence was moved by Honourable Richard
Ujege, who represents Konshisha state constituency.

The move was backed by 21 members out of the 30-man Assembly.

The impeachment took place in the absence of the speaker but the Clarke of
the House was present at the plenary.
