He said the House unanimously approved the impeachment of the lawmaker better known as “Mabo” due to issues about his handling of the legislative procedures.
According to him, Inuwa’s handling of the procedures did not go down well with the members
Musa, however, said that the House will soon announce a new Majority Leader.
Meanwhile, Boko Haram terrorists are fleeing from Sambisa forest to Rijana Forest in the Chikun local government area of Kaduna state, according to a leaked memo.
In the memo signed by the Acting Deputy Commandant-General of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Intelligence and Investigation, B.O Bassey, civil defence officers were asked to be on the alert over the situation.
According to the document, the terrorists are planning to team up with one Adamu Yunusu aka Saddiqu, and his supporters.

Nigerian Army continues robust operations against terrorists
Recall that the Nigerian Army on Thursday, September 9, stated that counterterrorism troops in the northeast have arrested a ‘high profile Boko Haram member’ and raided one of the terror group’s logistics bases in the northeast.
The bases were said to have been used for the production of Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) materials in Damboa and Gashua in Borno and Yobe states respectively.
Army spokesman, Brigadier-General Onyema Nwachukwu, said the successful actions were a consequence of ‘robust operations’ by Operation Hadin Kai troops.
FG asked to reveal sponsors of terrorism
In a related development, the Middle Belt Forum (MBF) has called on the federal government to reveal the identities of the sponsors of Boko Haram terrorists in Nigeria.
The forum is made reference to the 400 Bureau De Change operators recently accused of funding the terrorists in the country.
The MBF said the government has a responsibility to reveal the identities of the suspected sponsors to absolve itself of culpability.
