Our reporter discovered Councillors within the Council are planning to be embarrassed in office.

Sources within the council and amongst those working to hatch the plan have leaked the plan that is targeted at some time before the end of this week and towards the early days of next month.

A source who confided in our reporter and who is a serving Councilor mentioned that some leaders who are in the camp of a Governorship aspirant are not happy with the Chairman because he is seen as too loyal to the Governor of Ogun State, Prince Dr. Dapo Abiodun and that the party Chairman Alhaja Faidat Akintunde Sarumi is the one dictating all that happened within the Local Government.

He noted that their anger towards the chairman is that he didn’t send the “Owo Odun” and that he has not even shown any support for their own course.

Upon further probe, our reporter discovered that the councilors were disposed to the ploy because they are also looking at getting more money from the chairman of the council, whom they believed should be giving them more than what they are getting at the moment.

The serving councilor who wouldn’t want his name mentioned revealed that the chairman has been trying and has done more than many other chairmen, he noted that the chairman gives them an amount every month and allowed them to implement constituency project which has never happened before in the local government but that some of the councilors are acting on orders of their leaders and are hell bent on causing mayhem in the council.

He reiterated that although they had a discussion, not all of them are in full support of causing the disruption being planned.

It will become imperative that leaders within the local government, the Honorable Commissioner for Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Hon. Ganiyu Hamzat, and the Secretary to State Government Mr Tokunbo Talabi, the State Organising Secretary of the APC Hon Yemi Adelani and The Party Chairman Alhaja Faidat Akintunde Sarumi, may have to step in to forestall a similar scenario as the events that led to serious disruption of local government activities in Ota Local Government, where the councilors suspended the chairman and went further to impeach him before the situation was redressed.

We are monitoring the developments, and we shall keep updating the public.
