In a startling turn of events, the Ogun State House of Assembly finds itself in the throes of a crisis following the removal of Speaker Olakunle Oluomo.
This development, which transpired on Tuesday morning, unfolded through a simple majority decision within the assembly.
Sources close to the matter revealed that Daisi Elemide, a member representing Odeda constituency, has stepped into the role of Speaker, effectively replacing Oluomo.
The roots of this power shift trace back to a previous contest between Elemide and Oluomo, in which the latter emerged victorious due to the perceived backing of the executive.
The assembly complex reportedly descended into chaos, with tensions escalating to the point of teargas being deployed to disperse the agitated crowd.
The removal of Oluomo, confirmed by an anonymous lawmaker, signifies a significant shakeup in the political landscape of Ogun State.
As the situation continues to unfold, the details surrounding Oluomo’s removal and the dynamics within the assembly remain shrouded in uncertainty. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
