Ondo state house of assembly will reportedly be proceeding with the impeachment of the state’s Deputy
Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa following the expiration of the seven days ultimatum given to him to respond
to allegations of gross misconduct made against him by some lawmakers.
This is in spite of a court order barring the house from carrying out the impeachment proceeding
pending the determination of a lawsuit filed by Mr Aiyedatiwa.
The house which has now reacted to the court order, stated that the judiciary cannot stop the exercise as
it is protected by the Nigerian Constitution against the interference of courts.
The House also responded to another suit filed by Mr Aiyedatiwa before the State High Court by
describing the suit as an abuse of court process.
Speaker of the house, Olamide Oladiji who spoke at plenary on Tuesday, October 3, said;
“The impeachment process will continue in line with the 1999 Constitution since the deputy governor
failed to respond within seven days stipulated by the law.”
He issued a fresh directive to the Chief Judge of Ondo State, Olusegun Odusola, to “immediately” set up a
seven-person panel to investigate the allegations levelled against the deputy governor.
Mr Odusola is joined in the suit filed by the deputy governor at the Federal High Court in Abuja.
