LAWMAKERS under the aegis of Conference of Speakers of the State Legislators of Nigeria have described the unfolding political face-off between the Taraba State House of Assembly and ailing Governor Danbaba Suntai as unwarranted.
Chairman of the group and Speaker of Gombe State House of Assembly, Hon. Inuwa Garba who addressed newsmen in Abuja yesterday, said members were dismayed by the political developments in the state but urged the Taraba House of Assembly to remain resolute in the discharge of its constitutional responsibilities.
“We have analyzed the scenario and agreed that the seeming political face-off in the state is unnecessary and unwarranted. Overheating the polity of Taraba in the name of politics at a time the state is in dire need of peace and development is not in the best interest of the good people of Taraba State and Nigeria as a whole.
“We encourage all concerned to resist any undue internal and external interference capable of creating religious, ethnic and political discord among the diverse people of the state even as we call on them to remain calm and law-abiding”, he said.
