Rt. Hon. Berger Alfred Emberga has been elected as the new Speaker of the Benue State House of Assembly.
He replaces Hon. Hyacinth Dajoh, who resigned from the position in a handwritten letter addressed to the Clerk of the Assembly dated August 24, 2025.
Emberga emerged as Speaker during an emergency session of the 10th Benue Assembly convened on Sunday, August 25, 2025, to fill the leadership vacuum created by Dajoh’s resignation.
