The 40-member Assembly resumed today from two-month recess, during which the legislators hatched the impeachment plan.
The motion for Mr Ata’s impeachment was raised by a member representing Warawa Constituency, Labaran Madari, and seconded by the lone member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Abdullahi Muhammed.
