Impeachment: Ondo deputy governor wants Akeredolu’s name dropped from suit

The Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has asked the State High Court to drop Governor Rotimi Akeredolu as a defendant from his suit against the state House of Assembly over its move to impeach him.

Mr Aiyedatiwa said this in an application to amend the originating summons as Justice Akintan Osade on Friday in Akure took arguments from both parties.

The deputy governor’s lawyers said the amendment became necessary to bring the substantive issues in the suit before the court.
