Osun APC , Ex-Rep Makinde Condemn Dissolution Of Statutory Bodies By Gov Adeleke

Osun APC , Ex-Rep Makinde Condemn Dissolution Of Statutory Bodies By Gov Adeleke

 Osun state APC  has  described the dissolution of  four  statutory  bodies by  Governor Ademola Adeleke as executive recklessness and rascality.

Recall that  Governor Adeleke had earlier in the week  announced the dissolution of the State Civil Service Commission, the Judicial Service Commission, the Osun State Independent Electoral Commission and the Osun State House of Assembly Service Commission.

 Osun state APC  chairman,  Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, in a statement  made available to Team@orientactualmags.com  by the party’s Director of Media and Information, Chief Kola Olabisi on Wednesday submitted that the dissolution of the tenured statutory bodies was a flagrant act of an illegality.

Lawal  said it was surprising that  a democratic and  constitutional government could resort to the rule of the jungle rather than embracing the rule of law in the running of the affairs  of the state.

.

‘There is absolutely nothing suggestive of the fact that Governor Ademola Adeleke is in charge of his government.

In fact, he has learnt nothing about democratic governance and he knows nothing about the workings of the constitutional government. If he is adept at the act of governance, Adeleke would not have had the temerity and audacity to abort the life span of the statutory bodies.

With this dissolution of the statutory bodies, Adeleke is making the state a laughing stock among the comity of states .

Let it be known that this shenanigan and  display of an act of lawlessness by Governor Adeleke and his co-travellers would not be allowed to go unchallenged through legal means.

If Adeleke does not rescind the illegal decision to dissolve the statutory bodies with his obnoxious executive order, he should be prepared to face the music as Osun State is not a private enterprise that can be run according to the whims and caprices of an individual’ the statement said..

The party also noted  that if the Federal Government under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s  leadership  could strictly adhere to the principle of the rule of law with regard to the statutory  bodies,  Governor Adeleke  should not have dissolved statutory bodies with  life span of five years?

‘The  governor’s advisers should provide him with accurate guidance on the functions, membership, and tenure of statutory bodies as he seems not to know anything about it.

Is Governor Adeleke telling us that he is not aware that the statutory bodies have a five-year tenure, which were renewed by the immediate past Governor Gboyega Oyetola now Minister of Marine and Blue Economy?

 The dissolution of these Statutory bodies by Governor Adeleke is unprecedented and should be promptly reversed if only to show to the whole world that his administration is not vindictive’ Lawal stated.

In separate statement made available to  Team@orientactualmags.com on Wednesday,  a former member of the House of Representatives,  Hon. Rotimi Makinde,   has also condemned   the dissolution of the statutory bodies by  Governor Ademola Adeleke.

Hon Makinde has urged the governor to rethink   decision to dissolve the four statutory bodies and reverse his decision immediately.

The former federal lawmaker, who was  a member of the Osun State Judicial Service Commission, has  also threatened to take a legal action if the governor does not take steps to reinstate them.

Makinde emphasized the need to adhere to the rule of law , submitting that  that at the federal level, the President  has not  removed any one among members  of the statutory  bodies.

He has also urged the governor’s advisers to provide accurate guidance on the functions, membership, and tenure of statutory bodies-Team@orientactualmags.com
