JUST IN: Ekiti Assembly impeaches new Speaker
Ekiti lawmakers have impeached Speaker Gboyega Aribisogan less than a week after he was elected.
Seventeen out of the 25 lawmakers voted in favour of Aribisogan’s removal. He was also suspended indefinitely on Monday.
They elected Olubunmi Adelugba as the new Speaker.
Aribisogan accused former Kayode Fayemi of masterminding a plot to impeach him.
He said Fayemi was colluding with seven lawmakers of the Assembly to impeach him on Monday.
On November 15, Aribisogan, who represents Ikole constituency 1, was elected as the new speaker.
He replaced Funminiyi Afuye, who died in October after he reportedly suffered a cardiac arrest.
Twenty-four hours after he was sworn in, the Police laid siege on the Assembly complex over claims that some persons were planning to attack the lawmakers.
