Ogun House of Assembly members have revealed why they impeached speaker of the House Hon. Kunle Oluomo.
The embattled speaker who was accused of misappropriation and poor leadership was removed Tuesday morning has been replaced by Hon Oludaisi Elemide.
A member of the House Hon Soneye Damilola Kayode, representing Obafemi Owode Constituency, said the ousted speaker failed to ‘share the money’ given to them by the State governor Dapo Abiodun.
“Oluomo will go to the governor; he will come to us as members and tell us the governor has not approved for us any money, the governor has not given us any money, and that we should manage.
“We keep managing. We later found out that the governor had been giving us money. He takes a memo to the governor, the governor gives him money, and he comes back to tell us he did not give him any money.
“Let me give you a good example of this; the quarters allowance. When we came back, the governor gave us money for renovation. Oluomo took the remaining one and embezzled it.
“Now, 18 of us came together and said we cannot be the same. How can we manage our future? He keeps inciting members against each other. This is so bad we cannot take it any more.
“We have now changed the leadership of the House. The House is now under the leadership of Hon Elemide and we remain the same. He (Oluomo) should go and clear his name with the EFCC.”
