The Nasarawa House member had arrived to the assebly around 6:30 am with huge security and began sitting around 10 am for only 15 minutes before returning to Abuja, where they have been hiding from the Governors alleged thugs.

APC's Nasarawa state governor, Mr. Al-Makura has been for some months now having problems with the assembly whose majority are PDP elites.

The lawmakers have accused the governor of ordering his thugs to stone them as they left the house and after seeing the way Adamawa State governor, Murtala Nyako was impeached. They are now trying to impact the same strategy.

Meanwhile the opposition party APC have accused President Goodluck Jonathan (PDP) for being behind these impeachments proceedings.
