Speaker Raises Alarm Over Police Siege On Ekiti Assembly by engineerboat(op): 9:41am On Jul 26, 2018
The Speaker of the Ekiti State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Kola Oluwawole, has raised the alarm over what he described as police siege on the Ekiti State House of Assembly.

The Speaker raised the alarm in a statement he personally signed on Wednesday.
He said: “A few hours ago, it came to our notice that armed policemen had invaded the Ekiti State House of Assembly complex on the order of the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Bello Ahmed.
“The Police Commissioner claimed that he received a letter from the Clerk of the House, Mr. Tola Esan, purportedly seeking security deployment to the premises of the House.

“However, the Clerk has written to the Commissioner of Police, dissociating himself from any letter and describing such letter as forged.
“Mr. Tola Esan also spoke with pressmen on camera, stating categorically that he did not write any letter to the police, seeking deployment of security men to the House of Assembly complex and that the House is on recess till October 8, 2018.
“The question we now wish to ask the Commissioner of Police is; who wrote the purported letter and where did he get it from?
“Also, we wish to ask the Commissioner of Police the motives behind his hurried deployment of armed policemen to the House of Assembly complex without seeking clarification from the Speaker.

“Again, after speaking with the Clerk on phone and he told the CP expressly that no such letter was authored by him, why are the policemen still laying siege on the House of Assembly?
“The House of Assembly is constitutionally backed to go on recess as seen in the National Assembly and other advanced democracies in the world and therefore no official function of the house can take place while on Recess.
“As at today, the House of Assembly is on recess till October 8, 2018.
“Iformation at our disposal is to the effect that the Policemen are laying siege on the House of Assembly to provide cover for some miscreants today to perpetrate evil and create chaos in the House of Assembly thus threatening our democracy and putting the lives of our innocent staff into danger.

“We are also aware of the sinister plot to break into the Assembly Complex before daybreak with the intention of making away with the Mace.
“We therefore call the attention of well-meaning Nigerians to the fresh coup being plotted by some anti-democratic agents in the APC in collaboration with the Police in Ekiti State.

“As the Speaker of the House, herein the constitutional head of the institution, there is no threat in the House to warrant any deployment of policemen and the Commissioner of Police should therefore withdraw the illegal deployment of policemen to the premises of the house as such is unsolicited, unwarranted dangerous and ultra vires.

“Staff of the House of Assembly have also been directed to stay at home until further notice in view of the need to prevent injuries and loss of lives as the armed policemen can as usual be overzealous.”

Breaking and carrying The mace is dumb script been played by Fayose. the truth of the matter is that Fayemi is trying to woo some state legislatures and make them reconvene for an emergency sitting then they will impeach the speaker.

Nigeria Senate's Transfer market is Open....

15 Senators left their former clubs APC fc after a torrid 3 seasons at the top level....

Meanwhile, 2 strikers left APC fc for ADC in a bid to seek for playing times....

8 defenders, 3 midfielders and 3 strikers also Left APC fc to PDP fc after they allegedly fell out with their newly signed Head coach, Adams Oshiomhole....

However, the no-nonsense newly signed coach has issued a stern warning to the misfiring left winger, Chris Ngige , warning him to watch his back.

The captain of APC fc, Bukola Saraki is now sitting on the fence and hoping to force his move immediately the transfer window opens in September 23.

Painfully, A prolific defender, Shehu Sani who played a key role in the APC's cup winning 3 years ago failed his medicals at his new Club and his contract was terminated..... Hopefully, they might loan him to SDP fc by next season.

Finally the owner of APC fc, Buhari has refused to involve himself in any signing of new players especially after they won a local league in Ekiti state recently..

More details to come shortly......!!!
