The Ondo State government has dissolved the elected 18 local government council chairmen and the councillors in the state.
Acting governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa in a statement by his spokesperson Kenneth Odusola-Stevenson said the move was taken following the expiration of their tenure.
“This implies that all chairmen and councilors would vacate their respective offices accordingly and hand over the administration of the local governments,” Aiyedatiwa said.
“The state government appreciates the outgoing chairmen and councillors for their meritorious services to the people of Ondo State, while also wishing them the best in their future endeavours.”
Aiyedatiwa, however, directed the heads of LG administration in the 18 LGAs across to take charge of the administration of the local councils pending further directives from the government.
The development came long after the Ondo State Independent Electoral Commission (ODIEC) had announced February 2024 for the conduct of election into the 18 LGAs of the state.
