The Niger State House of Assembly was turned into a theatre of the absurd Tuesday morning when lawmakers broke the padlock on the gate used by the Police to prevent them from sitting to commence impeachment proceedings against the Governor Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu.
Apparently aware that those who want him out are 21 out of the 27-member Assembly, which meets the two-third majority required to carry out the impeachment process, the governor tried to ensure that the lawmakers did not gain access into the assembly.
But even when they lawmakers were able to force their way into the Assembly they found that the mace and the Clerk to the House of Assembly were nowhere to be found.
This put the process on hold.
The unrelenting members, however, vowed to continue sitting despite the fact that the Complex was brimming with security operatives.
The Police had in the early hours of Tuesday locked the gate to prevent coming in or going out by members and staff of the House.
This, supposedly, was to prevent the members from forming a quorum to move for the impeachment of Aliyu.
Angered that their members were locked out, some members of the Assembly, who were inside stormed, the gate and ordered the most senior officer guarding the gate to open it.
But the police officer, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, said he was not with the keys of the gate.
To this end, the legislators, after pleading with the DSP to no avail, got a stone and proceeded to break the padlock.
