Suspension of lawmakers: Imo APC reacts, urges decorum

Johnkennedy Uzoma

The Imo chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has advised its members of the House of the Assembly to maintain decorum.

The Publicity Secretary of the Party in the state, Mr Cajetan Duke, said this while reacting to the suspension issue during an interaction with newsmen in Owerri.

Duke who described the Assembly as an independent organ of government, called on the suspended lawmakers to desist from acts capable of jeopardizing their public image and that of the legislative House.

He noted that as law-abiding persons, the party would not only respect the independence of the Assembly but also align with any decisions taken by its leadership in the interest of democracy.

“APC respects the independence of the House of Assembly and supports any disciplinary measures that make for decorum and we urge the suspended lawmakers to resolve issues using internal resolution mechanism”, he counselled.

According to him, out of the six lawmakers who were suspended for alleged unparliamentary conduct, four were members of the ruling APC, an indication that it was not a case of a political witch-hunt.
