The panel approved the impeachment of Engr. Rauf Olaniyan having found culpable of all 5 allegations levelled against him by the 24 members of the state Assembly.
The Speaker, Oyo State House of Assembly, Honourable Adebo Ogundoyin announced Olaniyan’s impeachment during today’s plenary sitting at the floor of the House after deliberation on the report of the 7-man panel of investigation.
According to the report of the panel as read on the floor of the House of the Majority leader, Honourable Sanjo Adedoyin, the deputy governor at different intervals during the course of the investigation failed to honour the invitation sent to him to appear before it thereby compelling the panel to make unnecessary adjournment.
