Ondo Assembly Confirms Ongoing Impeachment of Speaker
The Ondo State House of Assembly has provided an update regarding the impeachment process against Speaker Olamide Oladiji, stating that the initiative remains active. This follows intervention from the All Progressives Congress (APC) aimed at resolving internal disputes.
The impeachment process was temporarily paused to allow for party intervention, with Oladiji facing allegations of mismanaging N44 million allocated by the Ondo State Oil-Producing Areas Development Commission (OSOPADEC) for the reordering of its 2026 budget. Reports indicate that 21 out of 26 lawmakers supported the impeachment notice.
Oladiji has denied the allegations, asserting that the impeachment efforts are politically motivated. Olatunji Ifabiyi, Chairman of the House Committee on Information, confirmed that lawmakers are awaiting further direction from APC leadership, with Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa involved in efforts to mediate the situation and maintain stability within the Assembly.
