Embattled Adamawa State Governor, Murtala Nyako, has been impeached.
The governor was removed Tuesday afternoon as the state House of Assembly deliberated on the report of an investigative panel that probed allegations of financial misconducts against him.
Seventeen of the 25 members of the Assembly adopted the report of the panel after Speaker Umaru Fintiri read the report on the floor of the House.
The report found the governor guilty of all the 16 allegations of gross misconduct leveled against him by the House.
The report was endorsed by all members of the panel. The motion for the governor’s impeachment was moved by
Jerry Kumdisi, the member representing Gombi state constituency.
The motion was seconded by Kwamoti Laori, the Deputy speaker of the Assembly and member, representing Numan constituency.

All the 18 members present at the meeting signed the resolution removing the governor.
The House also passed a motion that Speaker Fintiri should be sworn in as the state’s acting governor.
Earlier, the state Deputy Governor, Bala Ngilari, resigned from office to avoid being impeached. Mr. Ngilari’s resignation letter was read at plenary by the speaker of the Assembly, Umaru Fintiri, after which the lawmakers approved it.
The House is sitting today to consider the report of the seven-member investigative panel, appointed to probe
allegations of financial impropriety against the governor and his deputy.
The committee submitted its report to the House on Monday.
There is high security presence on the road leading to the Assembly and inside the complex.
A source, who works with the Assembly, told PREMIUM TIMES only staff and journalists are being allowed access into the Assembly.
The source requested not to be named because he had no permission to speak to journalists on the matter.
