Ondo Deputy Gov sues Assembly over alleged removal plans

The Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Agboola Ajayi, has dragged the state’s House of Assembly to court over alleged plans to remove him from office.

Ajayi made the move on Monday to halt plans by the Assembly to begin his impeachment process over his defection from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) a week ago.

The Deputy Governor, through his lawyer, I. Olatoke, filed a suit seeking to halt the proceeding of the House and enforce his fundamental right of association at the Federal High Court, Abuja.

The suit also listed the Inspector General of Police, State Commissioner Of Police, State Security Service (SSS) and the Speaker of the Assembly, David Oleyeloogun, as defendants.
