According to NAN, Police and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps and other security personnel manned the gates and surrounding.

The road linking the Terminus Market from the Plateau Specialist Hospital through the assembly complex was blocked from traffic.

The Plateau Police Spokesperson, DSP Alfred Alabo, said that the move was to forestall any breakdown of law of order around the assembly.

”We learnt that supporters of some politicians will be coming around the assembly to protest.

“If the politicians’ supporters come around, it is going to affect traffic and it may lead to the breakdown of law and order.

“In order to save lives and property, we took this action so that we can control security arrangements within the Plateau House of assembly area.

“If nothing happens, the security will be relaxed and everything will return to normal,” he explained

NAN reports that Abok Ayuba who was impeached on Oct. 28, 2021, was reinstated by the Plateau High Court on Monday.

He resumed duties on Tuesday and presided over the plenary.
But Ayuba’s successor, Yakubu Sanda and 12 others filed an appeal and stay of execution on Tuesday.
