Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has approved the suspension of the Chief Judge, Justice Oyebola Ojo.
This is despite an order of the National Industrial Court restraining the governor from removing or interfering with the judiciary.
A statement issued by the Governor’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, on Thursday, said the Governor approved the resolution of the House of Assembly asking the Chief Judge to step aside over the allegation of misconduct.
“The Executive Governor of Osun State, Governor Ademola Adeleke, has approved the resolution of the Osun State House of Assembly asking the Osun State Chief Judge, Adepele Ojo, to step aside the pending investigation of allegations of misconduct, abuse of power, corruption, and disregard for rule of law against her by the House of Assembly,” the statement said.
