The Kaduna State House of Assembly (KSHA) has suspended two of its members, Hon. Danladi Angulu Kwasu and Hon. Bityong Yakubu Nkom.

They were suspended for their alleged involvement in activities capable of bringing the House to disrepute.

Hon Mukhtar Isa Hazo, while moving the motion, said: “Based on their engagement in anti house activities, I hereby wish to move that Hon. Danladi Angulu Kwasu (Zangon Kataf) and Hon. Bityong Yakubu Nkom (Kaura) be suspended from this assembly till further notice.”

Seconding the motion, Aliyu Abdurrahman Haruna (Kawo), restated that the leadership of the House has been telling them to drop the differences between the political parties through which they have been elected into office.

Ratifying the position of the two members, the Speaker, Rt Hon. Aminu Shagali, then announced their suspension till further notice.

Mild drama ensued after the suspended members, who are from the minority Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), refused to vacate the floor of the House as announced by the speaker.

The lawmakers claimed they were not told the offence that led to their suspension, saying, they did not face any committee on whatever allegations that may have been levelled against them.
