adminThe Police Wednesday morning sealed off the Kogi State House of Assembly (KSHA).
The development which took the workers of the state assembly by surprise apparently because of initial inaction of the police to effect the Senate order for Inspector General to shut the assemble over the lingering crisis that has grounded legislative work in the state.
An assembly worker who spoke under the condition of anonymity confirmed the development to www.www.aso.rocks search engine saying, “They (the police) came sometime after 10 o’clock this morning (Wednesday)”.
Another source however debunked the shutting of the assembly by the police, saying that the issue was “resolved”.
The source who pleaded anonymity said workers were in their offices as at the time the Police came.
“Yes, they have resolved it. The police came but they spoke over the matter and the issue was resolved,” the source said.
The source, a lady, however added that lawmakers were yet to be allowed into the assembly complex”.
The House of Representatives which instituted a fact finding committee to look into the Kogi assembly crisis has since taken over its activities, followed by the Senate, which endorsed the close order.
The police has since the order looked the other way while the Umar Imam-led faction (G-5) of the assembly continued sitting, until around 10am Wednesday morning, when people were ordered out of the complex, while the Momoh Jimoh-Lawal faction otherwise known as G-15, which took its case before the National Assembly, have since stated away from the assembly.
