This is daft strategy. Clear APC supporters as members of the panel of inquiry and to submit report to a sitting APC government. U can guess the outcome from the very start.

Nigeria is a joke

I read it somewhere on Nairaland that they were sacked by counselors not the governor.
so all the chairmen misused the funds? That all councilors will sack all of them at once.

So all 18 Chairmen were impeached by their respective counselors at the same time? if that is the case, then something is fishy and I think there is a higher power involved.

That’s what still baffles me. It could be a conspiracy to wipe out PDP in the state and to position the man and Tinubu for easy second-term in the state.

Something must be wrong somewhere. It’s because governor of APC cannot sack chairmen of PDP that were out there by Obaseki.

Assuming it was during the time of interim local governments administration, we may say it could be easy for any governor to remove those chairmen but if Edo State has carried out proper local government election, the only and easiest way would be through those counselors.

Assuming Obaseki didn’t conduct such election before he left, it means he has made it super easy, for APC, to change the political landscape of the state.

We would still hear the details later.

Some of the responses here only make me laugh at the degree of illiteracy among the so called elites in Nigeria. As at today, State House of Assemblies can suspend Local Government chairpersons. And he also did not appoint a caretaker, but the constitutionally allowed person (Head of the LGA Parliament) since the Deputy is also suspended. I am not saying the governor is doing well, but he has not violated any rights or law.

Let's always read and understand. Everything nor be emotion

So governors can sack elected chairmen? Wow.... President should then have power to sack elected governors then.
So you can't differentiate from suspended and sack.
