10th Assembly Speakership: Crisis rocks House over doctored standing rules, as Gbajabiamila faces impeachment

DAILY POST

Lawmakers of the Green Chamber of the National Assembly are gearing up for a stormy plenary following allegations that the house leadership may have doctored its Standing Rules.

DAILY POST understands that over 100 aggrieved members of the House have signed a notice of impeachment to be served on the Speaker at the resumption of plenary on Tuesday.

Members have vowed to raise the issue on the floor of the House for immediate retraction of the suspected rigged and doctored document.

The doctored standing rules, referred to as the 10th Edition cited by a DAILY POST correspondent, allegedly has a new, strange and obnoxious provision for electing the Speaker and Deputy through an open ballot instead of the existing rule of a secret ballot that has been in use since 1999.
