Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State on Thursday said he is not preventing the 14 aggrieved lawmakers-elect of the Edo State House of Assembly from being inaugurated.

The lawmakers, under the banner of the Integrity Group, had asked the governor to issue a fresh proclamation for their inauguration but Obaseki has refused to do so, saying it can only be done once as the constitution stipulates.

When asked what he is doing to end the impasse, Obaseki told DAILY INDEPENDENT that the lawmakers should come to the Assembly and be inaugurated like their colleagues who have been sitting in the chamber.

“I am not stopping them from being inaugurated. I have issued the proclamation and their colleagues who showed up have since been inaugurated and carrying on with their legislative duties,” the governor said.

Is Obaseki or his deputy in pdp? Is the state party chairman or members of the house of assembly members of PDP? There is a pending implosion in APC and you are here calling PDP. APC will go down in history as the most disorganised political party in Nigeria. The only thing holding APC together is Buhari's presidency. APC will end with Buhari's tenure.

If they are not paid salaries, then its a matter of time. They would seek inauguration in due course
