The Osun State House of Assembly
on Friday announced the revocation of arrest warrant earlier issued against the
Late Bola Ige’s son, Muyiwa Ige, who was a former Commissioner for Lands,
Physical Planning and Urban Development in the state.
The house had on Wednesday
announced a warrant of arrest against Ige, through the state owned radio
station, Osun State Broadcasting Corporation (OSBC), following his refusal to
appear before the committee of the house.
According to a source at the
assembly, the former commissioner was summoned over an alleged illegal
allocation of land, located along Osogbo -Ilobu road while in office.
The house, however, made a u-turn
rather expectedly on Friday in a released signed by the Chairman, House
Committee on Information and Strategy, Olatunbosun Oyintiloye where it informed
that all issues had been resolved while the earlier warrant of arrest was said
to have been revoked.
“Sequel to an earlier statement
issued on Wednesday,13th December, 2017, on the above subject, the State of
Osun Assembly under the leadership of the Speaker, Rt. Honourable Najeem Salam
wishes to inform the general public that Arc. Olumuyiwa Ige has appeared before
the House and has stated his part on the issue in contention with the State of
Osun House of Assembly Leadership and Members.
“It is important to clearly state
that the former Commissioner for Land, Physical Planning and Urban Development,
Arc. Olumuyiwa Ige, has cleared the issue with the State House of Assembly.
In his reaction, the former
commissioner confirmed the “amicable resolution of the issue” adding that he
was not aware of the earlier invitation which was said to be announced on the
radio.”
