Nasarawa Assembly suspended the local government chairman for allegedly attending a case court involving a former secretary to the state government.
House of Assembly has suspended the Chairman of Nasarawa Local Government in the state, Mohammed Ottos, over alleged insubordination.
The Speaker of the House, Ibrahim Abdullahi, announced this after the Chairman of the House Committee on Local Government, Mohammed Alkali, moved a motion on the activities of the affected council officials at an emergency sitting in Lafia on Monday. “The Deputy Chairman of Nasarawa Local Government is hereby directed to take over the affairs of the council on acting capacity with immediate effect.“The Deputy Chairman, Karu Local Government, should also proceed on suspension.
The speaker expressed dismay at how the Nasarawa Council boss allegedly abandoned his people on the eve of election to attend a court case that did not concern the government, instead of staying around to assist security agents in ensuring peaceful Nasarawa Central constituency by-election.
