The Edo House of Assembly on Monday suspended three lawmakers over alleged plot to impeach the Speaker and other Principal Officers.
The Speaker, Mr Blessing Agbebaku, announced the suspension at resumption of plenary in Benin.
Agbebaku alleged that Donald Okogbe(PDP Akoko-Edo11), Bright Iyamu(PDP- Orihonmwon South) and Adeh Isibor (PDP- Esan North East 1)were being used by some external forces to cause chaos and remove the leadership of the House.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the pronouncement led to rowdy situation at the House as the lawmakers tried to challenge their suspension. READ ALSO:
