Governor Umaru Tanko Al-Makura of Nasarawa State, yesterday, said he would appear before the impeachment panel set up by the state House of Assembly, even as he described the panel as illegal to clear himself himself of the allegations levelled against him.

The governor who spoke at the Presidential Lodge when traditional rulers in the state and some of his permanent secretaries paid him Sallah homage said “I have made up my mind to appear before the panel of inquiry constituted in accordance with the constitution of Nigeria to clear myself of any allegation against me and to publish the outcome on any medium I will choose at the end.”

Al-Makura had told his supporters during a solidarity rally at the Government House last week that the impeachment process was illegal, adding that the Assembly had not served him with any impeachment notice.
