Enugu - The Enugu State House of Assembly has commenced impeachment proceedings against the deputy governor of the state, Sunday Onyebuchi.
Premium Times reports 22 out of the 24 members of the Enugu State House of Assembly yesterday July 22nd passed a resolution to serve the state deputy Governor, Sunday Onyebuchi, an impeachment notice over allegations of operating a commercial poultry farm within his official quarters in the state capital.
According to the lawmakers, the state deputy governor’s action contravenes their Feb 12 2013 resolution which ‘prohibited the maintenance and operation of a commercial livestock and poultry farms within residential neighborhoods in Enugu Metropolis in promotion of public health standards’.
They say an earlier directive by the state Governor, Chime Sullivan, to have the said poultry relocated by relevant ministry officials was disobeyed by the deputy governor who afterwards resorted to inviting pressmen to castigate the Governor.
The Deputy Governor is also being
accused of constantly disrespecting the state Governor which obstructs the peaceful administration of the state.

Chicken in government house??? That's really crazy.
Our politicians are turning to something else...But I don't think that is enough reason to impeach him.
There is a difference between government house and lodge. Furthermore, I don't view this as an impeachment offence rather as a witch-hunt. What have they done to all the rogues in the name of assembly members? The truth is yet to be revealed.
This country is just too messed up. Our government finds joy in doing irrelevant things.
