The Zamfara state House of Assembly, on Wednesday, unanimously voted for the impeachment of the state Deputy Governor Barrister Mahdi Aliyu Gusau.
In the plenary, 20 out 24 members voted for the impeachment of the Deputy Governor after the report submitted by the judicial panel of investigation found him guilty of the allegations levelled against him.
The report was read by the Speaker of the Assembly Honorable Nasiru Muazu Magarya.
Mr Gusau had declined to join the APC after Governor Bello Matawalle moved to the ruling party, prompting immediate attempts by lawmakers and the governor’s supporters to force him out of office.
