The House of Representatives has passed a motion to remove the Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT), Umar Danladi.
This comes after a motion moved by the Majority Leader of the House, Julius Ihonvbere (APC, Edo), who cited Section 17(3) of the Fifth Schedule of the 1999 Constitution.
Constitutional requirement stipulates that Danladi could only be removed by a two-thirds majority of the 360 members of the House.
Recall that the Senate last week also recommended Danladi’s removal, following a motion moved by Opeyemi Bamidele, the majority leader.
