Speaker of the Ondo State House of Assembly, Olamide
Oladiji, has confirmed that part of the resolutions reached after the recent
meeting with President Bola Tinubu over the political crisis that rocked the
state a few weeks ago was the signing of an undated resignation letter by the
deputy governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
It was gathered that the letter might be activated if
Aiyedatiwa contravened any of the resolutions reached in the peace meeting with
stakeholders from the state.
Disclosing this during the first plenary of the Assembly
held after the Abuja meeting, the Speaker revealed that there was no resolution
reached to the effect that Aiyedatiwa will be made acting governor, stressing
that the status quo will remain.
According to Oladiji, the Secretary to the State Government,
SSG), Oladunni Odu, the State Chairman of the party, Ade Adetimehin and himself
had been mandated to ensure full enforcement of the resolutions.
“Dear colleagues, Please permit me to formally welcome you
to this Hallowed Chamber following the recent harrowing and tortuous political
crisis that shook the entire State to the marrow.
“Without any iota of doubt in my mind, I strongly believe
that we all acted in line with the mandate given to us as representatives of
the people.
“For the avoidance of doubt, let me present to the good
people of Ondo State, the resolution reached after the meeting with
representatives of Ondo State, House of Assembly and State Executive Council
members, members of the National Assembly from Ondo State and the State
Chairman of our party with his Excellency, the President of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria.
“That all parties shall embrace peace. That status quo shall
be maintained by all parties. That all impeachment proceedings be deactivated
forthwith and all court cases be withdrawn by all parties.
“That there will be no dissolution of the State Executive
Council. That the leadership of the party and the restructure remain intact.
That the House of Assembly leadership remain intact.
“That Hon. Lucky Orimisan Ayedatiwa to continue to perform
the function of the office as deputy governor. That undated letter of
resignation must be written, signed by the Deputy Governor and submitted to the
President.
“That three enforcers, including the State Chairman of the
APC, Engr. Ade Adetimehin, the Speaker of the Ondo State House of Assembly, my
humble self, Rt. Hon. Oladiji Olamide and the Secretary to the Ondo State
Government, Princess Oladunni Odu, were appointed to monitor compliance with
ongoing resolutions,” he said.
While warning politicians against causing a political crisis
in the state, Oladiji said such persons would be dealt with severely.
“Let me at this juncture warn politicians, other gladiators
fanning the embers of war in this state because of their political interest to
please tread softly as the House of Assembly will not hesitate to deploy the
full weight of the law in calling them to order,” he added.
