Niger State House of Assembly Produces 3 Speakers in 7 Days!

The drama that has engulfed the Niger State house of Assembly continued, Tuesday, with the impeachment of Rt. Hon. Isa Kawu, who was elected as Speaker of the House a week ago.The speaker was impeached after a vote of no confidence was passed with 21 members in support of the motion and only 3 against.

Hon. Adamu Usman, who replaced Kawu, has since been sworn in by the Clerk of the House.

Recall that last Tuesday, Mohammed Tsowa Gammunu, was impeached after a motion was moved by Hon. Bashir Loko Goma, representing Wushishi constituency under matters of urgent public importance for lack of competence.

Consequently, Gamunu; Ahmed Bello, the Deputy Speaker; Mohammad Dada, the Majority leader and Sa'adatu Kolo, the Chief Whip were all removed and replaced by

Isa Kawu as Speaker, Abdulrahman Gambo as Deputy Speaker, Mr Yusuf Kure as Majority Leader and Alhaji Nazeer Abdullahi as Chief Whip.

Hon. Adamu Usman was the former State Anthony General of the State.

Why can't differences be resolve in Niger State? Do you think this will augur well for democracy in Niger State and indeed Nigeria?

Zuckerberg and 27-year-old Priscilla Chan wed at a small ceremony at his home in Palo Alto, California, on Saturday, capping a week during which the social network he founded listed on the share market for more than $100bn.

Zuckerberg took his company public in one of the most anticipated moves in Wall Street history on Friday. Chan graduated from medical school at the University of California, San Francisco, on Monday, the same day Zuckerberg turned 28.

The couple met at Harvard and have been together for more than nine years.

A company spokeswoman said Zuckerberg designed the ring featuring "a very simple ruby" himself.

The ceremony took place in Zuckerberg's backyard before fewer than 100 guests, who all thought they were there to celebrate Chan's graduation.

Tens of thousands of people "liked" his status change, which was accompanied by a photo of the couple in wedding attire.
