Africa-Press – Nigeria. The chairman of Malumfashi Local Government Area of Katsina State, Maharazu Dayi, has been impeached.
Maharazu Dayi was impeached on Thursday by 11 out of 12 councillors, barely two days before the local government elections in the state.
The councillors reportedly took action following allegations of misconduct and poor governance against the chairman after a dispute over the distribution of the council’s Paris Club funds, Leadership reports.
The development has sent shock waves across the LGA, especially as the impeached chairman is among those who failed to secure the ticket of the All Progressives Congress, APC, to contest in the forthcoming election.
Dayi was recently attacked by suspected hoodlums at his residence, resulting in the death of his security aide.
