The Benue State House of Assembly has confirmed Governor Hyacinth Alia’s nominees for the local government caretaker committees.
In a voice question put by the Speaker, Mr. Aondona Dajoh, the House confirmed twenty-one (21) nominees while nominees for Agatu and Oju Local Government Councils were dropped by the assembly.
In another development, four members of the Benue state house of assembly have been suspended for three months for constituting a clog in the smooth running of the legislative business of the House.
Those suspended include Solomon Gyila, representing Gwer West state constituency, Douglass Akya representing Makurdi South, Dyako Ashwa representing Konshisha state constituency and Anthony Agom of Okpokwu state Constituency.
The motion for their suspension was moved by Majority Leader of the House, Mr. Saater Tiseer and was seconded by Peter Ipusu of Katsina-Alaa West State constituency.
