Edo Council Chairman, Oshionogue impeached

The Chairman of Akoko-Edo Local Government Area, Bliss Alabi Oshionogue, has been removed from office.

This is following his impeachment by members of the legislative arm of the council.

The impeachment was conveyed in a letter endorsed by seven councillors.

The development came just hours after a planned peace meeting between Oshionogue and the seven aggrieved councillors failed to hold at the Edo State House of Assembly.
