Recall that the House of Representatives had on Wednesday inaugurated a 40-man committee to find a solution to the country’s security challenges, including but not limited to an insurgency in the North-East, banditry in the North-West, secessionist agitations in the South-East and Fulani-Herdsmen crises across the Middle-Belt and several South-West states.

The Committee is set to hold a four-day security summit in May.

But the lawmaker representing Jos South/Jos East Federal Constituency, Dachung Bagos, while speaking on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily, said impeachment processes will be initiated if the summit’s resolutions are not acted upon by the Executive.

“If the Executive had implemented 30 percent of the resolution and advice the National Assembly has been giving, I can assure you we couldn’t have reached this level,” he said.

Instead, he added, the insecurity issue has been politicised by the Executive.

He described the summit as a “last resort.”

“After this summit, if nothing is done – brainstorming, spending resources to bring out solutions – if the Executive does not do anything after some months, then definitely we will call for the resignation of the President.

“We have the power to impeach the President if he can no longer secure the lives and properties of Nigerians,” he said.

They, however, described the allegation as laughable and unfortunate.

InsideOjodu recalls that Oloro had said the impeachment notice served on him by the councillors was politically-motivated.

But the councillors described the chairman’s response as ‘laughable, unfortunate and begging the issue’.

Council Leader Wasiu Seidu, and five others (Deputy Leader Olatunji Kogbodoku; Majority Leader Olumide Akinade; Chief Whip Gbenga Opebi; Deputy Majority Leader Iyanda Kazeem and Deputy Chief Whip Jemilat Badiru), said Oloro resorted to blackmail by claiming that the action was ‘politically motivated’.

“The chairman only responded to one of the many allegations in our notice, that of the properties acquired illegally. He, however, failed to react to our demand for details of what the funds which accrued to the LCDA since 2017 were spent on.

“We reiterate that the infrastructure development of the council area is not commensurate with funds received since 2017.

“We condemn Oloro’s insinuations that our action was politically-motivated. We stand by the allegations and are ready to provide proof when the need arises if he prefers we go that route again,” Seidu said.

Oloro, who spoke at a briefing on Thursday said  the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has waded into the crisis.

This, he said, was to ensure harmonious relationship between the Executive and Legislative arms.

The council boss denied  ownership of various houses in Ekiti and Lagos states linked to him.

“If I embezzled all the funds in the council for the next ten years, I cannot build such edifices. How much is the allocation we get and the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR)? There was no iota of truth in the ownership of houses linked to me. I had even gone to court to swear to an affidavit dissociating myself from the ownership of the structures,” he said.

Oloro, who described the impeachment notice as political, assured the residents that the issue would soon be resolved amicably.

He explained that his focus after assuming the office was implementing policies and programmes that would be of benefit to residents of the council.

According to him, some people were not pleased by his intimidating achievements since given the mandate to lead the council.

“I have a good relationship with the councillors. All issues are being resolved by the party leaders. Though, we have appeared before the Lagos state House of Assembly to state my side of the story. We can have a disagreement on how we run things in the council and the party has provided an avenue to resolve it. The houses issue was misinformation that was mismanaged. It was politically motivated to malign me,” he said.

Oloro, however, congratulated President Muhammadu Buhari, the APC National Leader, Bola Tinubu, and the leadership in the state for the victory the party recorded during the just concluded bye-elections in the state, saying the victory was made possible due to years of successes recorded by the party.

He noted that the projects embarked upon by his administration were people-oriented.

“Some of the projects were: construction of a new secretariat, construction of Erinosho Street road Aguda, Ogba, Odusami Street road in Ogba axis, and Construction of Abibatu Mogaji Ultra-Modern shopping complex (Formerly known as Ogba Retail Market) in Ogba; an upshot of effective Public-private partnership.

“Also, renovation and commissioning of a block of six classrooms at Ojodu Primary School III, renovation of the first phase of the offices of the councillors, leader and legislative chamber, and rehabilitation of blocks of six classrooms at Oke-Ira primary school, Oke-Ira,” he said.

The impeachment process was taken at the plenary of the House on Tuesday.

Subsequently, the Assembly elected Mr. Samuel Aderoboye from Odigbo Constituency 2 as the new Deputy Speaker.

But as Biden seeks to leverage his freedom with a final campaign blitz in the critical early voting state, he and his advisers know that the proceedings in Washington could overshadow any closing case they try to present.

Although he will be far from Capitol Hill, Biden is intertwined with the root cause of Trump’s impeachment case: The president pressured the Ukraine president to declare a public investigation of Biden and his son Hunter Biden based on discredited theories about the younger Biden’s foreign business dealings.

Biden himself sought to sidestep the issue during public appearances on Monday. But aides to the former vice president worked furiously to get ahead of any effort by Senate Republicans to use the trial to malign him.

Kate Bedingfield and Tony Blinken, top campaign aides to Biden, distributed a memo to the media saying Trump “is the only American president to have weaponized foreign and national security policy in an attempt to coerce a foreign country into lying about a rival presidential candidate.”

The document reflects that Trump’s claims have no basis and underscores the Biden campaign’s long-established strategy of aggressively countering Trump’s broadsides, a lesson his aides say they learned from Hillary Clinton’s handling of Trump in 2016. But it is also an acknowledgment that Biden cannot necessarily control this story line, especially as some Republicans and conservative media push the idea, however unlikely, that the Bidens should testify before the Senate.

With that in mind, the memo urged media not to repeat a “malicious and conclusively debunked conspiracy theory” from the White House and GOP claiming that the Bidens engaged in wrongdoing when Hunter Biden served on the board of a Ukrainian energy firm while his father handled U.S. foreign affairs in the same country.

Indeed, Trump’s unsupported assertions have always depended on the discredited accusation that the elder Biden pressed for the firing of top Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin to spare his son’s company, Burisma, from scrutiny. Ousting Shokin was, in fact, the official position of the U.S. government and its Western allies, including European Union nations and the International Monetary Fund leadership, because Shokin was believed to be incompetent or corrupt himself.

The appointment of Onoja was confirmed at about 8:27 am, Onoja been the immediate past Chief of Staff to Governor Yahaya Bello appeared before the 25 lawmakers, he was asked to take a bow and go.

The Speaker of the House, Prince Mathew Kolawole, charged the new deputy governor to support the vision of Alhaji Yahaya Bello towards bringing more development in the state.

Prince Kolawole directed the Clerk to convey this development to the Judiciary by swearing in Onoja as the new deputy governor.

The House, however, adjourned sitting to Tuesday 3rd December 2019.
