Oyo Assembly Resumes Amid Impeachment Tensions Against Makinde

The Oyo State House of Assembly will resume plenary sessions on Tuesday following a temporary suspension due to escalating tensions surrounding an alleged impeachment plot against Governor Seyi Makinde. The assembly had previously halted its activities amid concerns raised by members regarding political developments that distanced them from the situation.

Speaker Ogundoyin is at the center of the crisis, which involves claims and counterclaims related to prominent figures such as Olubadan Rashidi Ladoja and the widow of late former governor Abiola Ajimobi. The situation has been further complicated by comments from former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, who suggested that the plot against Makinde's administration is part of a broader agenda targeting the monarch.

Sources within the assembly, speaking anonymously, indicated that lawmakers are ready to move forward and focus on their legislative duties despite the ongoing political turmoil.
