Alao-akala Removes Alaafin As Permanent Chairman, One week After Losing Election by Nobody: 4:39pm On May 04, 2011 |
arely one week after losing his re-election bid, Governor Adebayo Alao-Akala on Tuesday signed a law which stops the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III, from occupying the position of the Oyo State Council of Obas and Chiefs in permanent capacity. Adeyemi has hitherto been the permanent chairman of the council. A statement by Alao-Akala’s spokesman, Mr. Dotun Oyelade, on Tuesday indicated that the signing of the law tagged, Oyo State Council of Obas and Chiefs Amendment Law 2011 supercedes similar law enacted in 2,000 by the Alhaji Lam Adesina’s regime as governor of the state. By this development, the chairmanship of the council has become rotational among the Olubadan of Ibadan, Soun of Ogbomoso and the Alaafin of Oyo in that order. The law was debated and passed on Tuesday afternoon by members of the state House of Assembly. At an extraordinary sitting of the Assembly, attended by 18 out of 32-member Assembly, the legislators revoked the permanency clause in the year 2,000 legislation providing that the office be henceforth rotated among the Alaafin, the Soun and the Olubadan. The lawmakers last sat on March 22, 2011 but reconvened on Tuesday with the amendment of the law as their sole agenda for the day. The state lawmakers claimed that the amendment of the law had been in the offing for a long time and needed to be addressed by the Assembly before its tenure expired. The council’s deputy chairmanship also becomes rotational among the Olugbon of Orile-Igbon, Eleruwa of Eruwa, Okere of Saki and Aseyin of Iseyin in that order. Oyelade denied any political undertone to the government’s decision. “It is invidious and shallow for anyone to read political motive to this issue which to our mind, the time is ripe and just,” he said. http://www.punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art201105041535678 |
