It could be recalled that the protracted Bauchi State House of Assembly leadership tussle came up after its controversial dual election of Speakers by two groups within the lawmakers.
Abubakar Suleiman was elected as the Speaker of the House by 11 lawmakers, comprising of eight PDP members, two APC members and the lone NNPP member.
However, the other group, comprising of 20 lawmakers, later convened at the premises of the State House of Assembly and elected the Speaker of the 8th Assembly, Kawuwa Shehu Damina as their Speaker.
The Bauchi State House of Assembly had been closed since its inauguration because of the leadership crisis.
While the Abubakar Suleman group adjourned Plenary indefinitely, efforts to hold plenary by the Damina group was halted because of a Court Order obtained by the other group.
Formation of the Adhoc Committee by the House of Representatives is the latest effort to resolve the stalemate.
