There was pandemonium at the Edo State House of Assembly on Tuesday when suspected thugs invaded the complex, shooting sporadically and injuring six persons, following the impeachment of the Speaker, Mr. Victor Edoror, and his deputy, Mr. Bright Osayande, by 16 members of the House for alleged misconduct. It was learnt that trouble started when the Majority Leader, Mr. Folly Ogedegbe, moved the motion for the impeachment of the Speaker and his deputy for alleged gross misconduct, which was seconded by Mr. Gani Audu (Etsako West I). One of the lawmakers, Mr. Patrick Iluobe, was later appointed to preside over the business of the day where the member representing Uhunmwode constituency, Mrs. Elizabeth Ativie, was appointed as the first female speaker of the House of Assembly, while Dr. Joseph Okonoboh (Igueben constituency), was appointed as her deputy. Immediately the new speaker was sworn in, Edoror and Osayande were said to have walked into the chamber allegedly in company of some thugs who shot sporadically and left the workers and some journalists to scamper into safety.
