The Edo State House of Assembly has announced the recall of Mr. Bright Iyamu, one of the three lawmakers suspended on May 6.
Iyamu (PDP-Orhionmwon South) was suspended along with Donald Okogbe (PDP-Akoko-Edo II) and Adeh Isibor (APC-Esan North-East I) over an alleged plot to impeach the Speaker and other principal officers of the Assembly.
Iyamu’s reinstatement was reported on Monday, while Okogbe and Isibor remain on suspension.
Announcing the lifting of the suspension during plenary on Monday, the Speaker, Blessing Agbebaku, said that the House had found Iyamu to be remorseful.
Shortly after Iyamu’s recall, other lawmakers took turns to appeal to the Speaker to consider lifting the suspension on the two remaining lawmakers.
The Speaker, in his reaction, noted that Isibor had taken the matter to court.
