The impeached Speaker of Ekiti State House of Assembly, Olugboyega Aribisogan, yesterday, petitioned the Inspector- General of Police (IGP), Usman Alkali Baba, over alleged security threat to his life.

Aribisogan, in a petition, alongside two of his allies – Tajudeen Akingbolu and Adegoke Olajide – to the IGP titled: “Save My Soul/Appeal for Police Protection,” dated November 7, 2022, recounted his ordeal after he was recently impeached in controversial circumstances.

“On Tuesday, November 15, 2022, 25 members of the House of Assembly participated in a free, fair and transparent election of a new Speaker to fill the vacancy which occurred owing to the death of the late Speaker of the House, Funminiyi Afuye. “I must mention that for some days before the election, some powerful forces outside the Government of Ekiti State had been coercing members of the House to support Adelugba for the Speakership.

“The Commissioner of Police never gave me a feedback, but his men remained at the Assembly Complex preventing me as Speaker from accessing my office. Other lawmakers and members of staff were also not allowed into the premises. “Those members were shepherded to the House of Assembly by a band of political thugs and allowed access to the House Chambers at 6:00 a.m. on Monday, November 21, 2022 by the policemen who had sealed up the Assembly Complex since the previous week.
