Governor of Delta State, Emmanuel Udughan,
has secured a N40 billion bond without the consent of 2/3 of members of the
state house of assembly.
A whistleblower within the state's House of
Assembly informed our correspondent that the governor muzzled the
speaker, Rt. Honourable Onwusanya, representing Oshimili South Constituency,
and one (Mrs.) Lyna Ocholor,clerk of the house, to allow him secure the
bond without the consent of members of the House, less than ninety days to the
end of his tenure.
Irked by this development, the state house
members have vowed to impeach the speaker for acting independently. However,
Rt. Honourable Onwusanya has begged his colleagues not to disgrace him out of
office, but to allow him resign.
Udughan on the. Other hand, has been working
overtime to try to pacify the aggrieved House members.
To this end, the governor called a meeting with members
of the state House on Thursday and pleaded with them, promising to give each of
them a share of the largess to support their campaign.
