Edo 2020: LG Legislative Leader Removed By 3 Councillors by Freeman213: 7:38pm On Jun 17, 2020 |
The Legislative leader of Ovia South West Local Government Area of Edo, was on Wednesday removed by three councillors from the 10 that made up the council's legislative arm. The councillors who briefed newsmen in Benin, attributed the unconstitutional removal of the leader to their refusal to defect from the All Progressives Congress (APC) with the council chairman. The councillors are loyal to the Adams Oshiomhole faction of the party in the state while the Chairman, Mr Destiny Enabulele, is loyal to the Gov Godwin Obaseki. The leader, Mr Robert Ekeme Fiyes was impeached while another councillor, Mr Mr Godwin Osahenvemwen, was suspended for allegedly not supporting Obaseki. Fiyes said his removal and the suspension was allegedly carried out in the private residence of a very influential chieftain of the party who is still in the Obaseki administration. He further said the signatures of the seven councillors who did not partake in the alleged removal were forged. “We are not aware of any impeachment; our signatures were forged into a document and three of our members went to the house of a leader of APC who is not even from our local government but in government and purportedly removed the leader and suspended a councillor. "The allegation is that we are not loyal to the chairman who is supporting Governor Obaseki," he said. But when contacted, the chairman of the council, Enaulele, denied allegation of such development. According to him, “I am not aware of such, we operate independent arms of government but I have been informed that I have a letter from the legislative arm which I have not even seen.” |
