Rumored impeachment of Ekiti House of Assembly Speaker

 Fresh facts have emerged that Ekiti lawmakers did not impeach the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, rather the legislators approved the reconstitution of the local government caretaker committees and confirmed the commissioner- nominees of Governor Ayodele Fayose.
It was earlier rumoured that seven members of  Ekiti State House of Assembly backed by well
armed policemen, Monday, impeached the speaker of the state house of Assembly, Adewale Omirin.
Idowu Adelusi CPS to the Governorof Ekiti state has denied reportes that the State Speaker has been impeached. The CPS statement read thus ”Our attention has been drawn to the news that the Ekiti State Speaker has been impeached by 7members.

Well, I am not suppose to respond to the lies
aired purposely to misinformed members of the public because the legislature is another arm of government and whatever they do in their chamber is their business and the executive arm has nothing to do with that.
If they remove their leaders and appoint new ones, that is their business.
However, to educate the public, no speaker was removed. Nine members of the House sat today to approve the commissioner nominees, Special Advisers and the Local Government Caretaker Committees for the 16 local government councils.There are 26 members in the House and the
House standing order allows a quorum of 9 members to sit and appoint speaker plenipotentiary to preside.
So, what transpired in the House is within the law.
APC are only being hypocritical. APC-controlled state of Edo, we all know what is happening there. For over a year now, the state governor has prevented the lawmakers from sitting.
He said he was going to renovate the Assembly Complex and PDP lawmakers have been meeting in the dilapidated complex, while APC lawmakers are meeting at the Government House.
Also another APC state of Rivers, the judiciary has been shut down for over a year too.”
