Ondo House of Assembly had pased a Vote of Confidence on the Leadership of Jumoke Akindele as the Speaker of the house.

In its early hours sitting today, a motion of Vote of Confidence was moved by the Majority Leader of the House, Hon. Ifedayo Akinsoyinu and adopted by the majority of members seated, a solidarity of the Honourable members of the House put paid to the lingering controversy over the leadership of the House.

The sitting was however disrupted by miscreants after the passage of motion and commencement of the executive session, an occurrence which made the Police to intervene and sealed up the Assembly premises to safe lives and properties.

The Ondo State House of Assembly has been engulfed in a leadership tussle which has left the House divided into camps where some members, last Friday, sat and elected Hon. Malachi Coker, representing Ilaje Constituency, and another camp, today, retaining loyalty to Speaker Jumoke Akindele.
