Citing ‘personal reasons’, new Imo speaker resigns 48 hrs after resumption

There seemed to be no end to the crisis rocking the Imo State House of Assembly as the new Speaker of the House, Lawman Duruji, who assumed duty on Tuesday resigned his position.

Duruji representing Ehime Mbano state constituency, told journalists that he resigned for personal reasons.

It would be recalled that the 5th Speaker of the House, Acho Ihim, resigned in a similar circumstance, while his deputy, Ugonna Ozuruigbo, also resigned to face his new duty in the House of Representatives.
