The Speaker of the Imo State House of Assembly, Paul Emeziem, was on Monday impeached by 19 of 27 members of the state House of Assembly.
He was immediately replaced during a special sitting in Owerri with Kennedy Ibeh (APC – Obowo), a second-term member of the assembly.
Members of the House left the assembly’s premises as soon they finished the closed-door sitting.
Emeziem had last week announced the impeachment of the Deputy Speaker, Amarachi Iwanyanwu but gave no reason for the removal.
