Taraba state dissolves 8th Assembly

Taraba state house of assembly has dissolved the 8th assembly constituted in 2015.

The dissolution followed a letter sent by the governor Darius Ishaku and read at the last plenary of the eight assembly today by the outgoing speaker Peter Diah.

Diah in his valedictory speech commended his colleagues for enabling a smooth working relationship with the executive.

The outgoing lawmakers eulogized their departed members Hosea Ibi who was kidnapped and later killed by his abductors as well as former member representing Ardo Kola constituency Emmanuel Dame who also died.
