According to Premium Times, the governor was removed by the state House of Assembly some moments ago.
It was gathered that the governor was sacked after the lawmakers deliberated on a report submitted by an investigative panel that probed allegations of financial misconducts against him.
The committee submitted its report to the House on Monday, 14 July, 2014.
Earlier on Tuesday, 15 July, 2015, the state's Deputy Governor, Bala Ngilari, was reported to have resigned from office to avoid being impeached.

Mr. Ngilari's resignation letter was read at plenary by the speaker of the Assembly, Umaru Fintiri, after which the lawmakers approved it.
A source informed that there is high security presence on the road leading to the Assembly and inside the complex.
The source, who works with the Assembly, stated that only staff and journalists are being allowed access into the Assembly.
Details of this development would be disclosed later.
Commenting on the impeachment of Governor Nyako few minutes after the news was broken, Nigeria's former minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Mallam Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai went on his official facebook page to post: "JONATHANIAN IMPUNITY ENDANGERING THE NATION: Adamawa APC Governor Murtala Nyako impeached 10 minutes ago to pave way for a PDP Deputy Governor.
Nasarawa is next. Then Rivers and Edo. And President Jonathan thinks that all will be well while he violates the constitution and the law. We will see how it all ends. We have been there before!"
