Crisis is currently brewing at the Abia State House of Assembly as 18 out of 24-member impeached the Speaker, Honourable Chinedum Orji.

The 18-member who signed for the Speaker’s impeachment Tuesday morning, accused Mr. Orji of flagrant disregard for the rule of law and high headedness.
His removal followed a motion moved by Hon. Chukwudi Apugo (Umuahia East), and seconded by Hon. Okey Igwe (PDP, Umunneochi).
