The Speaker of the Imo State House of Assembly, Mr Chiji Collins, has been impeached by the State House of Assembly.
Collins was removed from office by the lawmakers on Friday during a plenary at the legislative chamber of the Assembly complex in Owerri, the state capital.
It’s been reported that the former speaker’s impeachment was backed by a move which was supported by 19 out of the 27 members of the House.
Collins was impeached over allegations bordering on financial impropriety, high handedness, gross misconduct among others.
