Joint security forces, comprising the police and the Department of State Services (DSS), seized the Ogun State House of Assembly in Abeokuta. This development unfolded after the impeachment of Speaker Olakunle Oluomo.
The ousting of Olumo, representing Ifo I Constituency, transpired during Tuesday’s plenary, presided over by Deputy Speaker Mrs. Bolanle Ajayi. The decision stemmed from allegations of gross misconduct, including high-handedness, lack of transparency, arrogance, poor leadership, financial misappropriation, and incitement of members against one another.
The assembly promptly elected Oludaisi Elemide, a loyalist of former Governor Olusegun Osoba and representing Odeda Constituency, as the new speaker. The motion for Oluomo’s impeachment was moved by Adegoke Adeyanju, Yewa North 1 representative, and seconded by Ademola Adeniran from Sagamu II constituency.
Following news of the impeachment, security forces swiftly secured the assembly complex in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta. A security van blocked the main entrance, restricting vehicular movement.
A dramatic scene unfolded when security agents insisted on searching Adeyanju’s car within the assembly complex. Despite the search, nothing incriminating was found, confirmed by the Commissioner of Police.
The impeached speaker, Oluomo, remained unreachable for comments amid multiple calls to his mobile phone. However, the newly elected speaker, Elemide, asserted that Governor Dapo Abiodun played no part in the impeachment saga.
Exposed!! Popular Abuja doctor revealed how men can naturally and permanently cure poor erection, quick ejaculation, small and shameful manhood without side effects. Even if you are hypertensive or diabetic . Stop the use of hard drugs for sex!! It kills!
It’s noteworthy that both Oluomo and Elemide had previously contested for the speakership. Governor Abiodun’s intervention persuaded Elemide to withdraw, allowing Oluomo’s re-election in June.
In another twist, former Deputy Speaker Oludare Kadiri accused Oluomo of fraud, prompting an Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) investigation. Oluomo now faces N2.5 billion in corruption charges related to the alleged diversion of the assembly’s funds, which is currently undergoing legal proceedings.
