The impeachment proceedings against Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State moved one step forward today with a resolution by the House of Assembly, under the leadership of Speaker Wale Omirin to authorize the Chief Judge to set up an impeachment panel to look into the allegations of gross misconduct against the governor.

The resolution, obtained exclusively by SaharaReporters, was signed by the speaker and two other members of the "G19", the 19 majority members of the All Progressives Congress who want the two-time governor removed from office.

Our sources said the House membership met at an undisclosed location in Ado-Ekiti to discuss the way forward following the notice of impeachment they served against Fayose on March 3rd 2015.

Appearing on a live radio and television show on Tuesday, Governor Fayose bragged, “I’m like Israel that is in the midst of enemies but will always prevail. Whoever wants to remove me will first have to impeach God.”

In October 2006, Fayose and his first term deputy, Mrs. Biodun Olujimi, were impeached on corruption charges. If impeached in the ongoing drama, he would become the first man in Nigerian history to be impeached twice from the same elected position.

SaharaReporters has published evidence as to how the Peoples Democratic Party, in collusion with the security services, rigged him back to power in June 2014.

Another war looming in Ekiti.

My people do not be used by any politicians, let them call their kids that are living outside the country to die for them.

That escalated quickly

I be buhari supporter, abeg make these APC legislators forgive fayose and let am continue as governor. All this political action they distract our country.

Nice move, i can't just wait to see him in kirikiri faded uniform.

I wonder the kind of human he is because he doesn't behave normal and i wonder the kind of woman who agreed to have him as husband. choi! Women with their love for money, that woman is really coping.

Temperature is now closing up to 200C on Fayose. Who go quench this ravaging fire? GEJ, how now?

My governor is a gonner

Fayose, We have missed your daily adverts in the newspaper

When are you going to release another advert attacking Buhari or disgracing your mother

Gej has directed him to OYO " on your own"

Let them keep dreaming, election is next tomorrow.

Report from Ekiti said the people are strongly behind Fayose.
the lawmakers are simply wasting their time cos election is less than 48 hrs when they will become irrelevant.
PDP is going to sweep all the state house of assembly just as in march 28th election

The elections on Saturday does not stop the assembly members. Their tenure ends on May 29. Believe me, they have enough time

If only we all know - what tomorrow holds


In all the Impeachment that has happened in Nigeria. This is by far the sweetest..

goodbye fayose... Hope you stashed away enough loot.

Let the pdp lawmakers sweep whatever they want to sweep, may 29 is still far. Lawmakers will become irrelevant after may 29, no saviour can save this man.

If GEJ is not seen campaigning for PDP governors at this stage, what more can he do to save Fayose

Unfortunately, GEJ has used Fayose and dumped him.

Fayose is now on his own to fight his many battles.

Fayose this is the end of pride and impunity. Its time to face embarrassment.

No way. They should impeach Fayose and kick him out for his unforgivable sins against democratic governance. Those legislator are fighting to right the wrongs the dictatorial Fayose committed when he made it "minority carries the vote" by using 6 PDP legislators to cower 19 legislators from the opposition.

In a sane and functional democracy that is a no-no and an impeachable offence in itself. Compromising, muzzling and undermining the judicial arm cannot be tolerated in any nation looking to build a vibrant and robust democracy with functional and independent arms of government that ensure the sacrosanct check-and-balances all democracy needs to thrive.

He doesn't deserve it. Not because he is in pdp but because of his actions

whether they are re-elected or not they are still members of the house till after may 29. The only issue dat could help fasoye's case is that the impeachment prooceedings were conducted outside the house. Fayose knows this and that is why he is hell-bent on denying them acess to the house. This was one of the issues considered in the case of inakoju v. Adeleke

An impeachment notice can be served from anywhere in the state. They only need the chamber for impeachment votes.

Nobody is above the law my friend. Even Fayose said this is one of his adverts

You even know that they can't have access to the house, do you think pdp will allow the impeachment of Fayose having laboured for Goodluck?
