Speaker of Ekiti State House of Assembly, Gboyega Aribisogan, has called on the elders, sons, and daughters of the state to intervene in the plot to impeach him.
Aribisogan made the call at a news conference in Abuja, where he insisted that he remains the speaker of the house.
He said “Two of us contested for the seat to become speaker, I scored 15, while my opponent scored 10. I won and I was duly sworn in as Speaker.’’
He added that things were going normal and peaceful until some people arrived to disrupt the activities in the state House of Assembly.
Aribisogan said there were moves to institute an impeachment process albeit illegally against him to create a crisis in Ekiti state.
“We are calling on all the prominent people in Ekiti and clerics to come to our rescue. Ekiti must progress,” he said.
He also called on the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) both at the national, state, and local levels to rise to the occasion and rescue the situation in the state.
