Expressing relief at the end of the tenure of the lawmakers yesterday, the governor said the end of the term of the APC controlled legislative House was now an opportunity for him to get into the act of governance.
The next House of Assembly is entirely dominated by Fayose’s Peoples Democratic Party, PDP members, who in an interview with Vanguard pledged total cordiality with the governor.
The APC lawmakers had on April 4, 2015 issued a notice of impeachment to Fayose, citing cases of abuse of office and gross misconduct.
The impeachment plot against Fayose also took a new dimension on Monday when the Speaker, Adewale Omirin and his colleagues made moves to return to the Assembly Complex and continue with the impeachment move but efforts of the lawmakers were, however, met with resistance as PDP members blocked all entry points into the state in order to avoid human and vehicular movement into the state.
Calling out his supporters to come out today in a state broadcast yesterday, Governor Fayose said: “I want to thank the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, members, commercial drivers and motorcyclists, market men and women and citizens of this state for their continued support for me while the face-off lasted.
“With the expiration of their tenure, there is relief for me and my administration, and it is now time to perform my duties as governor of the state.
“In view of my travail in the hands of the outgone lawmakers, reprieve has now come to my government and I can now feel like a governor.
