During a special plenary session of the house on Monday, the majority leader of the house, Bello Muhammad Mazawaje moved a motion to take disciplinary action against the members.
The house leader alleged that the eight lawmakers held an illegal sitting with a mace that did not belong to the house and, in the absence of many officers, whose presence is a prerequisite to any sitting of the house.
He also accused the members of breaking into the offices of the House Clark, Sergeant at Arms and denying other members access to the assembly chamber during the session he described as “kangaroo.”
In their separate support for the motion, the Deputy Speaker of the House, Adamu Aliyu, PDP, Gummi II constituency; Rilwanu Na-Gambo, PDP Anka Constituency and Hamisu A.
