Benue Assembly Recommends Suspension of SUBEB Chairman for Lack Of Competence

The Benue State House of Assembly has again passed a resolution, calling on the executive Governor of Benue State, Hyacinth Alia, to suspend the Chairman, State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) Grace Adagba for a period of six months.
The house also directed the Special Adviser, Bureau for local government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Denen Aondoakaa to stop releasing funds to the board.
A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Speaker Terver Zamber reveals that the motion was moved by Bemdoo Ipusu who informed the house that the Chairman had refused to honour the adhoc committee constituted by the house to investigate her illegal activities at the board.
Ipusu, stated that the SUBEB chairman has written to the House, claiming it has no right to investigate contracts from the board, and accused the chairman of deliberately obstructing the House from exercising its constitutional oversight mandate.
Contributing members expressed strong displeasure over the SUBEB Chairman’s behavior and urged the House to recommend her immediate suspension.
It will be recalled that in December last year the State Assembly had ordered the suspension of the SUBEB boss over recruitment controversy.
