Assembly speaker breaks silence over impeachment plot against governor
In response to the impeachment rumors, the Speaker of the Benue State House of Assembly, Aondona Dajoh has dismissed reports of an impeachment plot against the State Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia.
While responding in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary Akume Ityav, the Assembly Speaker insisted that the malicious report was aimed at destroying the mutual understanding and peace the legislative and executive arms are presently enjoying in the State.
However, the Speaker maintained that the Benue State House of Assembly under his watch is preoccupied with making quality laws for the good governance of the State and does not have time for frivolities, AIT reports.
_____The Speaker also wondered why non-investigative journalism has become the hallmark of the said online Newspaper and warned the publishers to desist from falsehood against the Benue Assembly or risk judicial action.
According to.the press statement, in as much as the role of the Assembly is to act as a check on the executive based on the principles of separation of powers as championed by Baron de Montesquieu’s, Spirit of the Laws (1748), for now there are no anxieties.
