Members of the House of Representatives have given a one-week ultimatum to the the Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, to issue a fresh proclamation

The lawmakers arrived at the resolution on Wednesday while adopting the report of an ad-hoc committee mandated to investigate the crises in the state legislature.

While adopting the recommendations presented by Abdulrazak Namdas, chairman of the committee, the house also directed that all actions taken by the current assembly in Edo should be declared null and void pending proper inauguration. “The Inspector-General of Police and the Director-General , Department of State Service should shut down the Edo State House of Assembly and provide adequate security to allay further fears of intimidation and threat as alleged by Members-elect,” the recommendations read.

The Edo State House of Assembly has been embroiled in controversies over the ‘inauguration’ and the ‘election’ of a new Speaker for the Edo State House of Assembly.
