The impeached Deputy Speaker of Plateau State House of
Assembly, Yusuf Gagdi, has expressed his happiness over his impeachment.
According to him, he was happy that his removal was not
linked to any fraudulent activity; saying he believed it was done in good
faith.
Gagdi, who represents Kantana constituency, stated this
while commenting on his impeachment during an interview with journalists
shortly after Tuesday sitting.
Earlier during plenary, the Assembly impeached Gagdi,
following a vote of no confidence passed on him.
He was removed from office after the majority leader, Henry
Yunkwap, read the impeachment notice signed by 18 of the 24 members of the
House.
The clerk of the Assembly, Ayuba Gongu, confirmed
verification of the signatures of the legislators who signed the impeachment.
Gagdi was immediately replaced by Sale Yipmong, a member
from Dengi constituency, southern Plateau state.
