AGENCY REPORTS
The Speaker, Ekiti House of Assembly, Mr Kola Oluwawole, has
assured the people of the state that the legislative arm of the government
would not shark its responsibilities.
Oluwawole, in a statement on Saturday in Ado Ekiti,
said:“Ekiti people voted for us on April 11 in expectation of new things, and
by the grace of God, the current 26 lawmakers have resolved to do their jobs
well.
“We will not cheat the people, we will not cheat Gov.
Ayodele Fayose; we will not wage war against Ekiti, we will not disappoint the
people who voted for us.’’
The statement, signed by the speaker’s Special Assistant on
Media, Mr Stephen Gbadamosi, was obtained by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
NAN reports that the 19 lawmakers of the All Progressives
Congress (APC) in the 7th Assembly had a frosty relationship with the PDP-led
administration of Gov. Fayose.
Oluwawole said neither would the House be polarised nor
would it bicker with the executive arm in the name of politics.
He reiterated the PDP-dominated House of Assembly’s
determination to be part of the drive that would bring about the desired
development in the state.
He noted that the bickering and faceoff between the former
legislators and the governor were responsible for the ‘war’ that was waged
against the state
“We are determined to join hands with the Fayose-led
administration to deliver the dividends of democracy to the people.’’ (NAN)
