We won’t back down on impeachment process against Aiyedatiwa, Ondo Speaker vows

Ondo Speaker Hon Olamide Oladiji has said last week’s apology by Deputy Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, to Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, was not a concern of the Assembly.

Hon Oladiji said the apology was a personal issue between Aiyedatiwa and Governor Akeredolu.

Oladiji said the Assembly would continue with the impeachment process against Aiyedatiwa.
Aiyedatiwa last week said he “tendered this reserved apology because of the embarrassment and discomforts he faces. The event has brought all kinds of negative news. He deserve the unreserved apology. I am at the center.That is exactly what I am tendring this apology for.”

But Governor Akeredolu, who spoke through his Senior Special Assistant on Special Duties, Dr Doyin Odebowale, said the only course of honour for Aiyedatiwa was for him to face allegations of gross misconduct raised by the Assembly.

Speaker Oladiji, who debunked crisis in the Assembly over the impeachment move against Aiyedatiwa, said steps have been taken to unite the lawmakers.

He said the lawmakers were on the same course on investigating allegations against Aiyedatiwa.
