Less than an hour after Shagali resigned as speaker, a new speaker has emerged in Kaduna State House of Assembly. He is Hon. Yusuf Ibrahim Zailani<\/p>\n

Hon. Zailani, who represents Igabi West Constituency in the Assembly, was the Deputy Speaker of the Assembly until his election to lead the House on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Zailani is a strong member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).<\/p>\n

Also, Hon Mukhatar Isa Hazo, representing Bassawa Constituency has been elected as the new Deputy Speaker.<\/p>\n

Both of them have been sworn-in by the Clerk of the Assembly.<\/p>\n

The former Speaker, who represents Sabon-Gari Constituency in the Assembly, officially submitted his resignation letter to the clerk of the House Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

DAILYPOST gathered that members of the House had started collecting signatures to impeach him before he eventually bowed to pressure and resigned.<\/p>\n

Chairman, House Committee on information, Honourable Tanimu Musa confirmed he submitted his resignation letter.<\/p>\n

However, Shagali\u2019s offence warranting the alleged impeachment was yet to be unraveled as the time of filing this report.<\/p>\n

The 40-year old Aminu Abdullahi Shagali became the Assembly Speaker on the coming of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to power in 2015.<\/p>\n

He was re-elected to preside over the House in 2019 on strong recommendations of Governor Nasir Ahmed El-Rufa\u2019i.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
