Benue assembly suspends LG chairman over gross misconduct

The Benue State House of Assembly has recommended the suspension of Kwande Local Government Area Chairman, Vitalis Neji, for three months due to allegations of gross misconduct and abuse of office. The decision came after an ad hoc committee investigated the claims against Neji, who was unable to defend himself during the committee's hearing. Following the committee's unanimous recommendation, Speaker Alfred Emberga announced Neji's suspension, which took effect immediately pending further investigation.
