Oluwatoyin Akere Reject Assembly's Request To Set Up Probe Panel Against Agboola by ahmedkoded95(op): 10:25am On Jul 10, 2020

The Chief Judge of Ondo State, Justice Oluwatoyin Akeredolu, has rejected a request letter to set up a probe panel from the state's House of Assembly
against the deputy governor, Agboola Ajayi, over allegations of gross misconduct, SaharaReporters can confirm.

Speaker of the Ondo Assembly, Bamidele Oleyelogun, had on Thursday written to the Chief Judge to set up a seven-man panel to investigate Ajayi with the aim to impeach him from office.

SaharaReporters obtained documents signed by the Chief Judge, stating her position on why the letter was rejected.

Also, a source in the office of the Chief Judge confirmed that the letter was rejected due to the inability of the Assembly members to follow the constitution to form the required number needed to impeach Ajayi.

SaharaReporters had earlier reported that 14 members of the Assembly had signed an impeachment notice against the deputy governor, listing seven allegations against him.

Nine other members of the Assembly had also written to the Speaker to distance themselves from the impeachment.

The source said the Chief Judge relied on this to conclude that the Assembly failed to form the 2/3 majority needed to impeach the deputy governor.
It was exclusively gathered that the deputy governor was yet to receive the impeachment notice sent to him by the Assembly.

I like this woman's courage. The era of governors pocketing their state house of assembly and Chief Judge of the state and using them to impeach and remove their deputies is coming to an end.

The constitution says it must be signed by ⅔ members and the number is below that.

Our democracy is developing. We must respect the rule of law. Principles of separation of powers must be adhered to by all arms of government. Kudos to the judge �

This is a welcome development. 18 members of the house must endorse the impeachment notice before the process can continue. While I’m not taking side with any party, it is very important that we do things the right way. 14 members out of 26 can commence an impeachment proceedings against the deputy governor but cannot take it up to the stage of asking the Chief Judge to set up an investigation panel until the process is endorsed by 2/3 of all the members. Akeredolu is a lawyer, he and his gang should follow the rule of law.

The assembly will restrategise to get the impeachment through.

How can you take the mandate of a party to another party. That's like robbing Peter to pay Paul.

No sane CJ would support such illegalities being perpetrated by those 14 members of ondo assembly. We all know that these useless lawmakers are doing the billing of that white bearded Santa Claus in Alagbaka.

A very honorable Judge indeed and a pride to the Judiciary she is.

This is how things must be done, the constitutional process must be strictly adhered to and the legislooters that collected 10m from Aketi to impeach the deputy must be taught how things are done in a transparent manner and not Kogi style

The judge wasn't obviously conscripted into the plot. Perhaps they've got nothing on her.
Thumps up for rejecting the illegality.

The penchant for constitutional illegality by public office holders is something else.This is why Nigeria needs to have strong independent institutions to ensure strict check & balances.

Am I the only one that thinks there's a power but invisible behind all this...
People are not usually this confident to a battle they haven't won.

I would have mentioned Tinubu but it seems they're going to use PDP to oust Akeredolu, so, who are you?
