Abia Assembly Impeaches Speaker
20 of the 24 members of the Abia state house of assembly have impeached Martins Azubuike, the speaker.The aggrieved lawmakers elected Kennedy Njoku, representative of Osisioma Ngwa north constituency, to take over the leadership of the assembly.
Azubuike, a three-term lawmaker, was said to have fallen out with the powers that be in the state.He was elected speaker in June; and in just the following six months, he has survived at least four impeachment threats.
Prior to the impeachment, Clinton Uba, Azubuike’s chief press secretary, said his boss did not commit any impeachable offence. “Mr. Speaker is innocent. An attempt to impeach the speaker, who has been carrying every member along can only heat up the polity,” he had told Sun. “The sixth assembly has been the most peaceful, despite its composition.
"The speaker has also been very supportive to the executive. Until we get to the house and see the alleged impeachment notice, I will be guided in my response but, I can confirm to you that the plot to remove my boss is no longer secret. My advice to the aggrieved members is to have a rethink and place the interest of the state above self.”

Tukur, 32, whose late father represented Bakori/Danja Federal Constituency at the Federal House of Representatives, was convicted for using knife to stab Shafir Muktar to death, the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports.
In his judgment, Justice Abbas Bawale, said the prosecution led by Mr. Aminu Garba had established the case of culpable homicide against the convict beyond reasonable doubt.
Bawale said the prosecution called five witnesses and tendered four exhibits which established the three needed ingredients namely – death of the victim, cause of the death and intention of the action.
He said the incident occurred on April 21, 2008 during a fight between the convict and the some of the prosecution witnesses at a viewing centre. The judge said the defence counsel, Mr. AbdulAziz Olagoke, effort to contradict the evidence of the prosecution was futile.
