Ondo House of Assembly
The Ondo State House of Assembly has dissolved the 18 Local
Government Caretaker Committee Chairmen in the state.
The dissolution came into effect on Thursday at the plenary of
members of the Assembly in Akure.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the lawmakers had, on
April 18, granted another six-month tenure extension to the 18
caretaker committees.
The Deputy Majority Leader of the House, Mr. Oluwasegun
Ajimotokin, representing Irele State Constituency, moved the motion
for the dissolution of the caretaker committees.
Ajimotokin noted that the tenure of the caretaker chairmen had
earlier been elongated for six months, which lapsed on October
17.
He said that since the issue had been extensively debated and
resolved at the parliamentary meeting of the members, the House
decided that the 18 local government caretaker committees be
dissolved.
“The House at its parliamentary meeting has adequately debated
the tenure of local government chairmen and resolved that they be
dissolved.
“I hereby move a motion for the dissolution of the committees
across the 18 local government areas of Ondo State with immediate
effect,” he said.
His motion was seconded by the Parliamentary Secretary, Mr Jamiu
Maito, representing Akoko South-West Constituency 1.
The Speaker of the House, Mr. Bamidele Oleyelogun, subjected the
position of the House into a voice vote and it was unanimously
agreed that the 18 caretaker committees should be dissolved.
Following the dissolution, Oleyelogun directed the caretaker
committees to hand over the management of the local governments to
the Directors of Local Government Administration with immediate
effect.
