The chairman of Ijebu East Local Government Area of Ogun State Wale Adedayo has accused the leader of the House of betraying the people.
Adedayo , while reacting to reports of his impeachment which allegedly took place on Thursday, said he was aware that the Leader of the House Akin Faseyi, was up for a mischief.
He said Faseyi had disallowed a video recording of the proceedings but added that the meeting was still recorded in audio format.
He accused Faseyi of being used by Gov Abiodun to sidestep the probe of the allegations of funds diversion made against him.

Re: Ijebu East Local Government update
Hon. Akin Faseyi,
I knew you were up to some mischief when you disallowed our media crew from recording the proceedings of the House in the morning. But you’ll be surprised to know that despite the video not being available, we were still able to do an audio recording.
Why do you have to lie so brazenly that I admitted wrongdoing? The fabrications which you presented to the public as what I said is an affront to my Eleda. All the documents you requested for are within your reach in the office. So, what happened to the Committee that was supposed to look into the so-called petitions?
Two things I told you in the morning and your responses were not even reflected:
1. You are on errand from Abeokuta to throw spanners into the wheel of my challenge to Mr. Governor about our monthly Federal Allocation. Despite your denial of same, I put it to you that you and your six colleagues were brought to Ogbere from Abeokuta in a Toyota Civilian Coaster bus escorted by Policemen from the Government House pool. You were perfidious to the extent that you did not inform your four remaining colleagues that the sitting would hold by 8am. Thank God for His mercies. We knew about that since yesterday and we knew an impeachment assignment had been given.
2. After being told our matter is now in court, you initially said the Council has not been served. But thank God for a dutiful Clerk of the House, who countered to confirm you were served yesterday. But, sadly, you still insisted NO court can stop your work “because the Legislature is superior to the Judiciary.” Hope you’ll repeat that in court on 22 September?
You are just being used to sidestep the Federal Allocation issue. The money will not go into my personal account. It will not only help us in Ijebu East Local Government, it will help all others throughout Ogun State. Thank God for Yewa North and Ijebu Ode. Questions are being asked by the people. I am sure you guys are afraid of questions from your constituents, which is the reason you are being kept in Abeokuta and anytime you come home you come with heavily armed policemen.
But, no kain, my belief is that we are all writing our political history. It will be tables in the fullness of time.
Wale Adedayo
