The Chairman of the Ijebu East Local Government Area, Wale Adedayo has been suspended by a quorum of councillors in the area following his allegation against Governor Dapo Abiodun.

Adedayo was suspended for three months on allegations of maladministration and financial mismanagement.

Confirming the development to ThePunch, Adedayo said it might be true, adding that policemen bombarded the LGA secretariat alongside some thugs on Thursday morning.

“It might be true. Policemen bombarded the office along with thugs this morning,” Adedayo said in a tacit WhatsApp message.

HeraldNG recalls that Adedayo had recently accused Governor Abiodun of withholding federal government allocations meant for LGAs within the state.

According to the council boss, Abiodun has not paid a dime to Local government accounts as Federal allocation in the last two years.

Adedayo in separate petitions to EFCC and ICPC on Tuesday called for the urgent intervention of the anti-graft agencies.

The council boss in the petition also accused the governor of denying the local government chairmen of the Ecological fund and other entitlements due to them.
