The speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Chief Monday Igbuya, was on Thursday morning impeached over allegations of financial misappropriation and highhandedness.
Igbuya was replaced by the member representing Okpe Constituency, Chief Sheriff Oborevwori.
The House sitting started about 7:06am which was against the usual 10am for sitting by the House, and was fully attended by 22 members excluding the impeached principal officers.
The lawmakers also suspended the impeached speaker for three months while the former Majority Leader who has now been replaced by Mr. Johnson Erijo was, however, handed an indefinite suspension.
