Dajoh emerges Benue Assembly Speaker
Some of the lawmakers were seen banging tables and engaging one another in a shouting match.
The governor, however, assured the lawmakers of his administration’s support at all times and solicited constructive engagements and support from the legislature and judicial arms of government to enable them to actualise set goals. He said, “The legislature not only gives the people a voice in affairs of government but provides the bedrock for the rule of law, equity and justice to reign in the polity.
Alia, who pledged not to interfere with the internal affairs of the legislature, especially in the election of its leaders, said, “We are prepared to meaningfully work with those who you choose to lead the house.”
