A source in the Assembly confided in newsmen in Ado Ekiti yesterday that the anti-Speaker lawmakers were mainly those representing constituencies in Ekiti North Senatorial district, comprising Ikole, Ilejemeje, Moba, Ido/Osi and Oye Local Government Areas of the State.<br>
+
The new move, which the source said could not be unconnected with the imminent change of government in the state, as Governor Kayode Fayemi s tenure expires on Wednesday, October 15, was aimed at balancing the political equation when&nbsp; the Governor elect, Mr. Ayodele Fayose is sworn-in.
+
 
+
<br>
+
The Speaker, who responded to the rumour, denied the reports of leadership crisis in the House, saying the lawmakers are united and remain committed to the development of the State.
+
 
+
<br>
+
Speaking through his Special Adviser on Media, Wole Olujobi, Omirin said the rumour is just the figment of imaginations of those peddling it, noting that the unity among members is something of pride to members and Ekiti people in general.<br>
+
The source said the incumbent governor is from the North; his Deputy, Prof. Modupe Adelabu, from the Central, while the speaker is from the South senatorial districts respectively.
+
 
+
<br>
+
The source relayed to journalists that the equation will change with the emergence of Fayose, who is from the Central and his deputy, Dr. Olusola Eleka, from the South, the same senatorial district with Hon Omirin, which forms part of the reasons to move for his ouster, coupled with external interference.
+
 
+
<br>
+
Another reason adduced by the source for the change of leadership was the fact that the lawmakers were said to have lamented during a recent visit to a national leader of the party in Lagos, expressing disgust at how Fayemi had allegedly treated them in the last three and half years due to seeming weak leadership.
+
 
+
<br>
+
The source said the lawmakers later resorted to the new tactic when they returned to Ekiti, seeing the Speaker s removal as the best way to get at the governor.<br>
+
The source said: The Speaker may
+
 
+
be removed anytime from now except he could play a fast game. Some APC lawmakers are bent on removing him at all cost, not only to balance the political equation, but to punish him for the sins he had committed under Governor Fayemi.
+
 
+
<br>
+
Rattled by the lawmakers desperate move, the leaders of the party held a truce meeting with the aggrieved legislators up to midnight on Friday, urging them to sheathe their swords, which the source said have been fruitful.<br>
+
The Speaker has urged Ekiti people to continue to have faith in their elected representatives in the House of Assembly, assuring them that members will not betray them in whatever guise.<p>Related Articles:</p><ul><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com/19-porte-monnaie>Porte-Monnaie</a></li><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com/18-pochette-louis-vuitton>Pochette Louis Vuitton</a></li><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com/21-sacs-du-soir>Sacs du soir Louis Vuitton</a></li></ul>
