Some Political Groups within the All Progressives Congress (APC) that are unhappy with the recent events in Ondo State have joined voices against the current infighting going on within the party, especially, the move by the House of Assembly to impeach Deputy Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa based on frivolous and unfounded allegations.
The APC Groups under the aegis of Sunshine Integrity and Good Governance Forum(SIGGF) and Young Advocate for Democracy Sustenance (YADS) stated this in a joint press statement.
The House of Assembly members had written the Aiyedatiwa over what it termed "gross misconduct" on the part of the deputy governor.
The groups said the process to recall 12 of the 26 lawmakers from the Ondo State House of Assembly had begun and constituents are urged to see between the lines and come out to sign the recall process.
According to the groups, submission of petitions to the Chairman of INEC, signed by more than 50% of the Registered Voters in the constituency, followed by a verification are required; and then a referendum.
"Attention! All constituents of all Ondo State House of Assembly Members. According to section 110 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic, the Process to Recall House of Assembly members is quite simple and straightforward and right now plans are in place to recall 12 members of the Ondo State House of Assembly.
"Their Recall Petition is being taken to their local governments as we speak and signatures are been gathered across the 18 local governments of Ondo State, which will, in turn, be forwarded to the INEC Chairman and they will be recalled within 90 days," the statement said.
The groups said the House of Assembly members did not care about the welfare of their constituents, reduced the governance level in the state and the bad handling of the sharing of palliatives that nearly cost an executive member her life in the sharing process.
They urged constituents interested in the process to reach out to the Save Ondo Project.
