The lawmakers said an effective investigation into the allegations against the embattled chairman will not be possible if he remains in office.
The speaker, therefore, constituted a five-member committee headed by the lawmaker representing Ogori-Magongo, Bode Ogunmola, to investigate the allegations against Onuche.
