Impeachment: Court Fixes October 30 To Hear Gov Akeredolu, Deputy’s Applications

The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Monday, fixed October 30 to hear pending applications filed by the legal teams of Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, his deputy, Mr Lucky Aiyedatiwa and others, regarding the suit instituted by the deputy governor to challenge the impeachment moves against him.

Recall that Aiyedatiwa’s counsel, Kayode Adewusi, brought an ex-parte motion before Justice Emeka Nwite, seeking an interim order blocking impeachment moves against him as well as an order restraining Governor Akeredolu from sending the name of a new deputy governor to the state’s House of Assembly for confirmation, pending the determination of his case.
