Is impeachment of a governor done along Lagos-Ibadan expressway? – Fayose is not taking APC lawmakers seriously

by Kolapo Olapoju

Earlier today, the All Progressives Congress lawmakers in Ekiti were reported to have served Governor Ayo Fayose an impeachment notice.

The lawmakers had released a statement, saying: “We are going to look at the allegations against Governor Fayose in a responsible manner and make our decision in line with the rule of law and the overall interest of the people of the state.”

But according to Fayose, the APC lawmakers are jokers.

He promptly released a statement this morning through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka.

Fayose said: “The script being acted by the APC is a failed one because no one, no matter how highly placed will be allowed to test the will of Ekiti people.The Speaker of the Ekiti State House of Assembly is Hon Dele Olugbemi and not Dr Adewale Omirin.”

“Omirin is already in court, challenging his impeachment and common sense dictates that when you are challenging an action already taken in court, you have accepted the consequences of such action pending the determination of the suit you filed. Since last year November, these so-called lawmakers abdicated their duties and ran to Lagos only for them to resurface on Wednesday, but they hurriedly ran away again.”

“Now they are posting notice of impeachment signed on March 9, 2015 and Ekiti people are asking; was the motion for impeachment moved and adopted in Lagos or Osun State House of Assembly? Is impeachment of a governor done along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway inside a moving bus?”

“Rather than going about advertising their ignorance and crudity, the APC lawmakers should wait for the court to adjudicate on the case they filed because even the President-Elect, Major General Mohammadu Buhari (rtd) will respect the rule of law when he assumes office,” the governor said.
