17 Lawmakers Press for Removal of Adamawa Speaker
Indications emerged monday that 17 lawmakers of the
Adamawa State House of Assembly were pressing for the
removal of the embattled Speaker of the House of Assembly, Hon. Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri.
It was alleged that the lawmakers were aggrieved because
Fintiri never fulfilled his part of the agreement held prior to
the impeachment of the former state Governor, Murtala
Nyako, and the impromptu resignation of his deputy, Bala
James Ngillari, now governor of the state to pave the way for
him to rule the state.
Sources closed to the assembly revealed that the lawmakers
are mobilising for the removal of the speaker in order to
adhere to federal character principles as enshrined in the
nation’s constitution.
According to some PDP stakeholders and lawmakers who
spoke in confidence with journalists in Yola, if the zoning
principle in the party is to be adhered to, it is unconstitutional
for the speaker and the governor to come from the same
constituency.
They claimed that the removal of the speaker could be on the
strength of the political crisis between the two politicians, so
as to allow a peaceful administration reign in the state.
It was further gathered that the embattled speaker could be
impeached tomorrow when the lawmakers meet or asked to
resign.
Attempts made to reach the Chairman, Assembly Committee
on Information and member representing Michika state
constituency, Hon. Adamu Kamale, to comment on the
development proved abortive as he said he was driving and
promised to call back.
As at the time of sending this report, he did not call back.
However, another source alleged that it would be difficult to
impeach the embattle Speaker because all the principal
lawmakers of the state assembly were behind him.
The source added that they might frustrate the removal
moves if there was any.
