LATEST ON IPOKIA ADEROHUNMU REMAINS SUSPENDED, COUNCILLORS INSIST. The Suspension of Hon. Isiaka Wale Aderounmu, the Ipokia Local Government Council Chairman was not reversed yesterday as Councillors insist on due process. Recall that there had been much speculation that members of the executive and leaders of the party would in a 4:00pm meeting held yesterday in Ipokia prevail over the councillors to reverse the suspension. However, the purpose of the conflict resolution meeting was defeated as Councillors, Key leaders of the Party and some Members of the Executive opened more can of worm. The Chairman had earlier in the day called a meeting of members of his executive cabinet to a venue in Idiroko to resolve and have a common front against the councillors ahead of the 4pm meeting, but pandemonium broke out when the chairman started accusing them of feeding the councillors with informations regarding his moves. The hot tempered Chairman slapped the Supervisor for works Mr Omikunle (Who he called his prime suspect) and thereafter called for some liquid materials, forcing his executive members to swear on oath. At the 4:00pm meeting, the councillors demanded for the bank slip with which the chairman paid the stolen N5,000,000 back into government cover, a condition they say is first, and not negotiable by any standard. Some of the already angered executive also took on the Chairman openly, accusing him of always short changing them as though he is the only one who needs money. Major allegations against the chairman by men of his cabinet are that; 1, The Governor sent N1,000,000 (1m) to the Vice Chairman through him (in preparation for the LG election held in July 2012) but the Chairman only gave N200,000 and had since failed to balance him till date. 2, That the Chairman, illegally withdrawn another N2.500.000 (2.5m) for his last trip to the United State without any incentive for members of his cabinet. Obviously, elders of the party that were present at the meeting also have their grouse against the chairman and his style of leadership as they keep murmuring into each others ears. As you read, no end in sight on the Suspension of the Chairman Hon. Isiaka Wale Aderounmu . All efforts and threat by the Abeokuta people and the Chairman himself proved abortive. All Councillors have flee their homes for an undisclosed destination to take refuge and keep their heads. Meanwhile, the Vice Chairman have been empowered to act in the Chairmans capacity until the conditions for suspension reversal is met. The drama continues!!
