Members of Ekiti Assembly impeach Speaker

This man is not having a good time at all right now. A few weeks after his fuel station was shut down by the Ekiti govt, the Speaker of the state House of Assembly, Adewale Omirin, has been impeached.

7 PDP members of the Ekiti State House of Assembly sat this morning to impeach him in his absense and replaced him with another member. According to reports, the police prevented the Speaker and 19 other senators from entering the assembly complex as the impeachment proceedings was going on.

Linda, did you write SENATORS??????

Unknown said...

Nice one ,I like dis.

Olusoji said...

I saw it coming that Fayose led administration will never change and will continue to intimidate law abiding citizens of Ekiti people. How could seven members (not up to 2/3rd of the house) move motion for impeachment of the speaker preventing other members from enetring the house? It is absurd.

Senators in the state house of assembly?Linda,please a little education won't hurt.Jeez!

When they have got you in their cross hairs, the ain't gon let you be! That is his cross

Bryan said...

Linda aren't you supposed to be getting more matured and intelligent? How can seven lawmakers impeach a speaker and you don't see anything wrong in that. When will Nigeria grow above all these backward behavior? You should be more informed on how democracy works but I am shocked at your being naive. With all these I am really getting apprehensive about our present government. well, I keep praying God gives the President and our leaders the courage to do what is right. May God help us.

How can 7 people impeach somebody that has 19 other people with him? Has this Fayose man learned nothing at all? Has he not take any lesson away from his disastrous rule in 03 - 05? Serves Ekiti people right also. A highly educated society that for some half baked belief/delusion decided to give their votes to a half/semi educated goon. Total Rubbish!!!

Ekiti people wanted a rogue for a governor, now they Have it..... How can 7 house members impeach the speaker? Am of the opinion that such acts by lawless house members should be sanctioned.. Like have always said, MANY ARE MAD, BUT JUST A FEW ARE ROAMING!!!!

Anonymous said...

It's a rumour Linda, he was never impeached..

Anonymous said...

Is this what Nigerians want...? A government that finds it democratic to use the police to prevent, the rule of law. In every state PDP has either regained or is currently governing. The rule of law doesn't apply, and yet Nigerians forget that those who are affected aren't these politicians but themselves (the everyday Nigeria)z isn't it time we start standing up and speak up.. If we elected them, then we should also remind them everytime who put them there.

blaq said...

That is so wrong and unconstitutional. The 1999 constitution clearly state that a speaker of the house of assembly can only be impeached by a votes of not less than two thirds majority of the members of the house. He should take them to court they have gone too far

Dear Linda,

It is a travesty of justice to say that 7 members out of a house of 26 has become majority. Should it be called an impeachment or a sham?? Two thirds of 26 is at least 17. Why should this shameful behavior be reported and accepted as if it is legal in Nigeria? We call it politics. I call it the shame of my country.
