Adamawa Crisis: Nyako Flies In Atiku, As 7 Man Panel Begins Probe
The Seven man panel created by Adamawa state Chief Justice yesterday commenced hearing on the probe allegations of gross misconduct against Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State and his Deputy, Bala Ngilari in Adamawa state capital Yola.
The meeting had started in privacy with journalists and politicians kept away by heavy armed security officials at a private hotel, J&J Holiday Villa.
Meanwhile former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has flown in to Yola, to try and end the impeachment process from materialising.
However the Military High Command has denied participating in Nyako's impeachment despite their men stationed at the house of the Adamawa State Acting Chief Judge, Justice Ambrose Mammadi.
Speaker of the House, Chief press secretary Mr Solomon Kumanga said that the decision of the panel to hold their meeting indoors was regrettable even though they had agreed to conduct their meeting in public.
He told journalist he would try any thing within his power to make sure the media is giving access to the next meeting.
Military Deny Coercing Adamawa Chief Judge
The Defence HQ yesterday through it's Twitter handle has denied threatening the Chief Justice and coercing him to create the seven man panel.
It read: “Allegation of threat by Military to Adamawa State Chief Judge on constitution of a probe panel to investigate Gov. Nyako is strange and false. “The Military will not be entangled with narratives of troubled persons alleging persecution to stir resentment.
We have serious work to do,” the DHQ said.
