In fact, OluFamous.Com gathered that the Inspector General Police have ordered the police in Ekiti State to restore security team of the Speaker of the House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Adewale Omirin.
Omirin, who leads the 19 APC majority lawmakers, lost his security after seven PDP lawmakers working for Governor Ayo Fayose claimed to have removed him from office.
The question is why did the police withdraw his security before if they know it was wrong?
The restoration of his security on the orders of IGP Suleiman Abba follows the restoration of the SSS and other security personnel attached to the authentic Speaker at the weekend.
The Omirin-led lawmakers, who returned from ‘exile’ are set to hold a plenary at the Assembly complex.
Meanwhile, the police have stepped up security in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital, and other parts of the state following moves to remove Governor Fayose from office.
Nineteen members of the House of Assembly who belong to the APC have signed a notice of impeachment, which they sent to Fayose and his deputy, Kolapo Olusola.
They say Fayose committed eight impeachable offences since returning to power last October.
The APC Youth Wing has hailed the impeachment move.
Youth Leader Femi Ogundare described the lawmakers’ action as “timely and courageous to save Ekiti from the grip of one-man dictator who has violated the Constitution he swore to defend”.
Ogundare said Ekiti people were tired of what he called the unending rape of the Constitution going on under Fayose’s watch, adding that the emerging new Nigeria would not tolerate the impunity and lawlessness being witnessed in the state.
“No single individual can be bigger than Ekiti. A governor is on the executive seat by the grace of the mandate of the people and anytime he carries out any act that violates the Constitution, the House of Assembly is there to perform their functions [impeachment]."
