Three Lawmakers have been suspended by the Edo State House of Assembly Speaker, Blessing Agbebaku on Monday over purported plan to impeach him and other prominent of the Assembly.

As loyalists of the impeached deputy governor, Philip Shaibu, one of the suspended lawmakers, Donald Okogbe, PDP, Akoko-Edo II, was the only one that didn't sign the petition which resulted in Shaibu's impeachment.

The two others are Addeh Emankhu Isibor, APC, Esan North-East I, and Iyamu Bright, PDP, Orhionnwon II.

Agbebaku also accused the trio of bringing native doctors to the House on May 1 at around 1am to perform the sacrifice.

Agbebaku said the three lawmakers were suspended indefinitely, alleging that external forces were influencing them to cause chaos and remove the house’s leadership.

Platinum Times Nigeria reports that the suspension of the lawmakers, however, created tension in the House as the affected lawmakers kicked against their suspension.

In a rowdy session, the three suspended lawmakers were seen screaming, “Mr Speaker, you do not have the right to unilaterally suspend any member(s) of the house.

“You must call for votes. Allow vote on the matter.”

The Speaker, thereafter, adjourned the plenary abruptly.

No one loves the foolish Ohiọnbá, he is just using state security apparatus to make people do his bidding.

Watch how he runs to Lagos and never returns to Ẹdo when his tenure expires.

Per the thread topic, these foolish State assembly is always full of drama. Nobody sent them there to align with Obaseki or whoever and fight his battle. Power will soon go to the other people and they too will seek revenge. Rivers and Ẹdo state are just the worst in that aspect.

Lies from incompetent and Ugly Obaseki's men. Edo will never vote PDP. We will either vote APC or LP. PDP will come a distance 5th position.
