In developing news, Pride Magazine Nigeria has learned that Ondo state deputy governor, Alhaji Ali olanusi has been impeached by the state house of Assembly.
Ali Olanusi dumped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) few days before the Presidential election and threw his Principal, Gov. Olusegun Mimiko into a state of confusion.
Just a few days ago, the Ondo State Assembly issued a notice of impeachment to the Deputy Gvernor over allegations of gross misconduct.
On Tuesday Speaker of the Assembly Jumoke Akindele claimed that Olanusi committed an offence that contravenes section 188 (2) of the 1991 constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The lawmakers further alleged that the Deputy Governor committed 9 impeachable offences.
“Pursuant to the provision of section 188 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, We the undersigned members for the Ondo State House of Assembly pursuant to our enabling powers under section 188 (2) of the 1991 constitution of the present to the Speaker the following allegations of gross misconduct against the Deputy Governor, Alhaji Ali Olanusi.”
The Majority Leader of the Assembly, Ifedayo Olugbenga Akinsoyinu, representing Ondo West Constituency II moved the motion of the impeachment which was seconded by Adeyinka Banso representing Akoko North West constituency I.
Olanusi was eventually impeached few hours ago.
