Soldiers bar legislators from Kogi State House of Assembly

Armed soldiers numbering about 15 on Tuesday, barred legislators from entering the Kogi State House of Assembly.

A group of legislators on the platform of the G15,  had taken over the parliament last Thursday and held a plenary session having secured an Abuja court ruling.

However, the G15 led by  embattled Speaker, Mr. Momoh-Jimoh Lawal returned on Tuesday only to discover that armed soldiers had barricaded the entrance to the House of Assembly Complex.

Spokesman of the G15, Matthew Kolawole, expressed shock at the development.

The Abuja court had ruled that the impeachment of Lawal by  5 out of 20 lawmakers was unconstitutional, null and void.
