Thugs takeover Ondo Assembly

-

Suspected thugs Monday September 7, 2020 tookover the premises of the Ondo State House of Assembly following a court ruling that quashed the suspension of four lawmakers.

Those whose suspension were lifted include: Deputy Speaker, Hon. Ogundeji Iroju, the only woman in the House, Mrs. Favour Tomomowo, Hon Wale Williams and Hon Tomide Akinribido.

They were among the nine lawmakers that refused to sign impeachment notice against the Deputy Governor, Agboola Ajayi.

The thugs were stationed at strategic locations in the Assembly complex.

Speaker of the Assembly, Bamidele Oleyelogun, insisted that they were not thugs but members of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW).

He said the NURTW members were at the Assembly premises for a meeting on conduct during the forthcoming elections.
