The legislative council of Irepo Local Government Area of Oyo State, has rescinded on their decision to suspend the chairman of the local government, Alhaji Asifu Adediran-Sulaiman and his deputy, Mrs Victoria Ojedele.
In a letter released on Monday, the ten local government lawmakers, wrote, “We, the members of Irepo Local Government Council hereby write to withdraw the indefinite suspension placed on the Chairman and the vice chairman of our local government.
“We are no more interested in the suspension earlier placed on the chairman and the vice chairman because of the intervention of eminent community leaders, especially the Council of Chiefs as well as the Iba of Kisi.”
“Furthermore, the chairman and his vice have promised to administer governance according to the rule of law as well as a pledge to be of good behaviour and character.
“In view of the foregoing, we are applying for the withdrawal of the indefinite suspension placed on them and we are very optimistic that this humble application would be given favourable consideration.”
The letter was sent to Oyo State House of Assembly committee on Local Government Affairs, through the Speaker and copy of it was obtained by Nigerian Tribune.
Recall that last week, the Oyo Assembly asked the council lawmakers to withdraw suspension placed on the chairman and his deputy pending investigation.
