Ondo Assembly Reverses Impeachment Of Speaker

The Ondo State House of Assembly has reversed the impeachment of the Deputy Speaker, Iroju Ogundeji. Hon. Ogundeji was impeached on Tuesday during plenary and replaced with Bimbo Fajolu.

The reversal of the impeachment was moved in a motion by the Majority Leader, Hon. Gbenga Araoyinbo and seconded by Hon. Fatai Olotu from Akoko North East Constituency.

According to the legislators, the reversal was as a result of the intervention of well-meaning Nigerians including leadership of APC in the state, Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu and Ogun state governor, Ibikunle Amosun amongst others.

Hon. Ogundeji was impeached by his colleagues for being at loggerheads with the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Bamidele Oleyeloogun.
