In a surprise move, the Deputy Speaker of the Ondo State House of Assembly, Hon. Abayomi Akinruntan, and the Majority Leader, Hon. Ogunmolasuyi, have resigned from their positions, effective immediately. The pair, both members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), tendered their resignations during Tuesday's plenary session, which was presided over by the Speaker, Right Hon. Olamide Oladiji.
According to reports, Hon. Akinruntan cited political power-sharing arrangements within the state as the reason for his resignation. The development has sent shockwaves through the state's political circles, with many speculating about the implications of the resignations on the state's governance.
In the aftermath of the resignations, the House of Assembly has selected new leaders to fill the vacant positions. Hon. Ololade Gbegudu, representing Okitipupa Constituency 2, has been chosen as the new Deputy Speaker, while Hon. Olatunji Oshati, from Ose State Constituency, has taken over as the new Majority Leader.
Details of the resignations and the new appointments are still emerging, and this report will be updated as more information becomes available.
