Chukwuma Nwazunku was never impeached as was alleged. He still remains the speaker of Ebonyi State House of Assembly and we shall continue to work with him as such. Other grievances among the lawmakers, we shall assist to resolve. But let me say that we are also ready for any person or group should there be any eventuality.</span></div> </div> </div> </div> </div>
