The Ebonyi state House of
Assembly on Tuesday recalled one of its suspended members, Ude Nwachi,
representing Afikpo North/East constituency.
Ms. Nwachi of the Labour Party is
the minority leader of the house.
The suspension that lasted for
month was lifted following a motion
moved on the floor of the assembly by Victor Chukwu, representing Ezza North
west constituency and seconded by Onu Nnoye, representing Ohaozara west
constituency.
The suspension followed an
alleged involvement of the minority leader in a violent protest and breach of
peace along Abakaliki/Afikpo federal highway which caused the burning of some
vehicles belonging to Enugu Electricity Distribution Company, EEDC.
Mr. Chukwu noted that the suspended
minority leader had shown enough remorse and that she had as well served the
duration of her suspension.
The Speaker of the House, Francis
Nwifuru, put the motion to recall Ms. Nwachi to vote and it was unanimously
adopted.
