Impeachment: We Are Following Due Process On Aiyedatiwa, Say Ondo Lawmakers
The Ondo State House of Assembly has stated that it is following the necessary due process in investigating the allegations made against Deputy Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
The Assembly clarified that serving the allegation letter to Aiyedatiwa did not amount to an impeachment verdict and that the deputy governor has the right to defend himself.
In a statement issued on Thursday, September 21, the chairman of the House Committee on Information, Olatunji Oshati, explained that the letter served to the deputy governor was the beginning of the impeachment proceedings, but that the process was rooted in due process and not hastily conducted.
He said: “We are conscious of the integrity of our present assembly and will not falter in our constitutional responsibilities to our constituents.
“We wish to declare, unequivocally, that the entire process remains within the realm of allegations. We are committed to examining these allegations objectively. Our primary responsibility is to uphold the integrity of our beloved state and foster accountability and transparency, even at the highest levels of government.
“Consequently, we urge our constituents to refrain from making premature judgments. Neither the Deputy Governor nor the Governor are immune to legislative actions. The allegation letter has been served, and Mr. Deputy Governor has the full right to defend himself. Rest assured, we are committed to following due process and will do so diligently.”
