Paul Emeziem
The speaker of Imo House of Assembly, Paul Emeziem, has been impeached by 19 lawmakers of the assembly.
Hon Emeziem of the All Progressive Congress, APC, representing Onuimo State Constituency, was removed today Monday 8th November 2021 during a special at the floor of the house.
Although details of the impeachment process were sketchy as at the time of filing the report, Tribune Online gathered that Emeziem’s removal followed a resolution signed by 19 out of the 27 members of the house.
Meanwhile, Kennedy Ibeh of APC, representing Obowo State Constituency, who is a second-term member of the Assembly, has emerged as the new speaker of the house.
The impeachment of the speaker is coming barely one week after the removal of Deputy Speaker, Amara Iwuanyanwu without an announcement of his replacement.
It was gathered that the members, who conducted the special plenary under closed doors, hurriedly left the Assembly premises soon after.
It would be recalled that Emeziem had last week announced the impeachment of Mr Amarachi Iwanyanwu as the deputy speaker of the house but did not give any reason for his removal.
