It was gathered that efforts to
impeach the Minority Leader failed after a physical confrontation among members
which resulted in the whisking away of the House Mace, its symbol of authority.
A member against the impeachment
overpowered the Sergeant-at-arms of the House, resulting in the snatching of
the mace from the chambers of the House.
The Police in the premises of the
House could not stop the member from taking away the mace.
The car carrying the mace was not
still found even as police chased and fired gunshot at it.
The Police, however, returned
without the Mace.
The Speaker of the House,
Honourable Abubakar Nasiru Nono, the State Police Commissioner, Shina Tairu
Olukolu, however, told newsmen in the State that he had not been briefed on the
matter and therefore declined comments until he has been briefed.
