Obiano

Governor of Anambra State, has weighed into the crisis that erupted in the state House of Assembly, where the Speaker, Rita Maduagwu, was reportedly impeached, saying the discontents that gave rise to the conflict, would be addressed promptly.

Obiano, who was particularly happy that the incident did not degenerate further, commended the members for the mature and wise way they handled the “minor misunderstanding that arose in the House on Tuesday, November 13, 2018.”

Speaking from Paris where he is on official tour with President Buhari, the governor, particularly, praised Maduagwu, the principal officers and other members of the House “for rising to the acid test of true democracy and peacefully resolving the mild misunderstanding that erupted among them saying that the matter would have degenerated to something unpleasant if handled by a less competent crop of leaders.”

The Governor expressed confidence in the ability of Anambra lawmakers to always resolve their differences in the truest tradition of representative democracy and forge stronger ties that would accelerate the development of the state.

He also expressed contentment with the assurances by the Speaker and the Principal Officers of the House that whatever grey areas that might be still lingering in the House would be amicably resolved in the next few days.

Speaking further, Governor Obiano assured that Anambra remains Nigeria’s most peaceful and safe state and that his administration would continue to work assiduously to ensure that the state maintains that status.
