The Plateau State House of Assembly has impeached its Deputy Speaker, Mr Yusuf Gagdi.

This followed a letter signed by 18 members of the House read at Tuesday’s plenary session by the Majority Leader, Mr Henry Yunkwap.

According to Yunkwap, the 18 members have passed a vote of no confidence on Gagdi, hence the need for his impeachment.

The impeachment was via a voice vote by members.

Consequently, Mr Salleh Shehu, member representing Dengi Constituency in the Assembly was voted in as the new Deputy Speaker of the House.

Shehu was nominated by Mr Henry Dakogol, member representing Qua’pan North Constituency. Gagdi seconded the nomination of his successor.

It would be recalled that Bamidele Oloyelogun from Ifedore state constituency was elected the new Speaker of the Ondo State House of Assembly under controversial circumstances.

He was elected on Monday by 13 of the 26 members of the house, the same group which controversially impeached the erstwhile speaker, Jumoke Akindele.

The other faction loyal to Ms. Akindele did not show up for the election which appeared to be impromptu.
