The embattled Deputy Governor of Adamawa State, Bala Ngilari, who is facing impeachment charges alongside his principal, Murtala Nyako, has resigned from office.
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.
