The Deputy Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly, Yekini Idaiye has been removed by seven members.

The removal motion was moved by Henry Okhuarobo, who represents Ikpoba okha constituency, and seconded by Marcus Onobun representing Esan West constituency.

In Idiaye’s place, Roland Asoro who represents Orhionwmon south was announced as the new deputy speaker.

Henry Okhuarobo is now the majority leader. Also Marcus Onobun representing Esan west replaces Henry Okhuarobo as the chief whip, while
Sunday Ojiezele representing Esan South East is now the deputy majority leader.

All seven members at plenary including the speaker are now members of the Peoples Democratic Party having recently decamped with Governor Godwin Obaseki.

Three other members were not at the plenary including the removed deputy speaker Yekini Idaiye, Nosayaba Okunbor representing Orhionmwon East and Emmanuel Agbaje representing Akoko Edo 2.

At least thirteen members-elect of the Assembly are yet to take their seats die to political rancour since the Assembly was inaugurated in June of 2019

He was impeached by 6 lawmakers, this is the same obaseki saying he's fighting godfatherism?? Lmao.

A governor that don't have any achievements to campaign with is a loser,this election will be the most easiest for APC to win in recent times.

We'll know the winner before 1pm

That is a welcome development

Obaseki is not playing like Ambode

Kaponanty:
Impeached by who ?


I think 19 out of the 24 lawmaker are with Oshomole so how would 5 law makers impeach him







EARN UP TO N3000 DAILY BY TAKING SURVEY

By 6 Lawmakers

this Obaseki man stubborn gan.
He's not leaving any stone unturned.

Another desperate act of illegality by the 3 credit governor in a party of tax collectors.

If the lawmakers are actually 10 then

Only 7 out of 10 can impeach him.

So, 2/3 of 10 is 6, right?

So much for fighting godfatherism. Obaseki's hypocrisy stinks.

Obaseki giving it to Oshiomhole back to back. Obaseki even if you loose this election, you have my respect 100% because you fought like a man with large balls, not Ambode that has become the S.I. UNIT of cowardice.


Truely Edo is not Lagos.

This Obaseki matter self don tire me.... He's seemingly fighting godfatherism while enthroning himself as a supreme ruler... Can't a person choose the aspirant he wants to ball with.... If Obaseki should lose this election ehn, his political obscurity will be worse than that of Saraki and they will probe his black nyash tire until it don red.... Long live Emperor Obaseki

I really don't think you're completely unaware of the kind of politics we play in this country; as I see your twist of narrative laughable.
He should wait until the 'defected deputy speaker' galvanises support from members-elect who had refused to be sworn-in, impeach the speaker, elect their own, sign and serve an impeachment notice on the governor and deputy; so that they could fight godfatherism from OUTSIDE ? Gosh! We the masses are really more hypocritical.
Even though such a script might not see the light of day, it will surely destabilise the government and heat up the polity the more.FYI, it is godfatherism they're still fighting by this action; so,wake up already. In Nigerian politics there are no saints.
