Kaduna State House of Assembly,
KSHA, at its plenary on Tuesday, suspended two of its members, Danladi Angulu
Kwasu, representing Zangon Kataf and Hon. Bityong Yakubu Nkom of Kaura
constituency.
The members were suspended for
their alleged involvement in activities capable of bringing the house to
disrepute.
Mukhtar Isa Hazo, Basawa, had
moved the motion that the assembly ,which is rated among the best in the
country should not allow anything that would tarnish the long-time built image.
“Based on their engagement in
anti house activities, I hereby wish to move that Hon. Danladi Angulu Kwasu
(Zangon Kataf) and Hon. Bityong Yakubu Nkom (Kaura) be suspended from this
assembly till further notice,” he so moved.
Seconding the motion, Aliyu
Abdurrahman Haruna (Kawo), reiterated that the leadership of the house has been
telling them to drop the differences between the political parties through
which they have been elected into office.
“If there is anyone who tries to
create problem, then proper action should be taken against that person,” he lend
his voice.
Ratifying the position of the two
members, the Speaker, KSHA, Aminu Abdullahi Shagali, then announced their
suspension till further notice.
Mild drama, however, ensued after
the suspended members, who are from the minority People’s Democratic Party,
PDP, refused to vacate the floor of the house as announced by the speaker.
The lawmakers claimed they were
not told the offence that led to their suspension, saying, they did not face
any committee on whatever allegations that may have been levelled against them.
The development forced the to
adjourn the day’s sitting.
Attempts by newsmen to hear from
the suspended members could not yield any results as Bityong only said, “I will
get back to you” while his counterpart Danladi, Angulu expressed worries over
failure of the house to follow due process.
The Spokesman of the house, Nuhu
Goroh Shadalafiya(Kagarko), declined to comment on the drama, saying, “whatever
that was discussed at the floor of the house has covered everything. So, I have
nothing to add to it.”
