Speaker Okiye who was reacting to the resolution of the House of Representatives said he rejected moves by the lower chamber to disrupt activities of the state assembly.
He stated that it was clear that the House of Representatives ad-hoc committee was up to no good and that their report was always going to be biased. “Considering what we came to know in the course of this process, the recommendation of the Ad-Hoc committee does not come to us as a surprise. “Also, the younger brother to the National Chairman, Seid Oshiomhole, in a recent leaked audio conversation, revealed the underhand dealings in Abuja regarding the matter. He stated that Oshiomhole and his proxies have been having meetings with the committee members and other actors in the issue in Abuja and dolling out money to ensure the issue goes in their favour.
