The Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly, Blessing Agbebaku, has resigned from his position amid moves by some lawmakers to impeach him.
Agbebaku stepped down on Monday, with his resignation confirmed by his media aide, Ivy Adodo-Ebojele, in a post on Facebook.
Adodo-Ebojele wrote: “EDO ASSEMBLY SPEAKER RT HON CHIEF BLESSING AGBEBAKU RESIGNS.” She added that further details on the circumstances surrounding the Speaker’s resignation would be made public later.
The development has plunged the Edo State House of Assembly into a fresh leadership crisis, with lawmakers expected to commence the process of electing a new Speaker.
