Caretaker Chairmen: Oyo Assembly Refuses To Lift Suspension, Directs Committee To Investigate
The Oyo state House of Assembly has directed its Committee on Local Government and Chieftaincy to investigate the reason for non compliance to the directive of the House by the 13 suspended caretaker chairmen.
This is coming after a letter by the Forum of Local Government Chairmen, Oyo state chapter urging the House to re-consider its decision and allow the suspended chairmen to resume.
The letter which was read at the plenary on Tuesday stated administrative lapses as the reason the chairmen didn’t submit the earth moving equipments as directed by the House.
