Oluboyo: I will be loyal to Mimiko

Ondo State lawmakers, on Monday, turned the Assembly Complex into a mini theatre as they sang “Ile lo lo tarara, Baba rele o’ (Father has gone home straight).
The singing started a few minutes after the embattled deputy governor, Alhaji Ali Olanusi, was impeached by 23 of the 26 lawmakers.
They sang, apparently, to express their happiness over the exit of Olanusi, who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in March, 2015, from government.
After the impeachment, Commissioner for Agriculture, Alhaji Lasisi Oluboyo, was immediately sworn-in by the Chief Judge, Justice Olaseinde Kumuyi, as Olanusi’s replacement.
Olanusi was impeached by the House of Assembly for gross misconduct.
Oluboyo hails from Ikare-Akoko, Akoko North-East Local Government. Olanusi is from Akoko South-West Local Government. The duo are from Ondo North Senatorial District. Oluboyo’s choice has also balanced the political equation in the Sunshine State.
The Assembly had, at its plenary, adopted the recommendation of the panel set up by Justice Kumuyi to investigate the impeachable offences against Olanusi.
The seven-man panel, headed by Mr Olatunji Stanley Adeniyan, had found Olanusi guilty of the seven-count charge.
The new deputy governor promised to be loyal to Governor Olusegun Mimiko and help in the discharge of his duties.
Oluboyo said he would not disappoint the governor unlike his predecessor.
Mimiko urged Oluboyo to be good a representative of the state.
