The Deputy Speaker of the Ondo State House of Assembly, Mr Abayomi Akinruntan, and the Majority Leader, Mr Ogunmolasuyi, have resigned from their respective positions.
Both are members of the ruling All Progressives Congress, with Akinruntan representing Ilaje Constituency 1 and Ogunmolasuyi represents Owo Constituency 1.
During the plenary session on Tuesday, which was chaired by the Speaker, Mr. Olamide Oladiji, the two announced their resignations on the House floor.
Akinruntan cited political power-sharing arrangements within the state as the reason for his resignation.
In the wake of these developments, Mr Ololade Gbegudu, representing Okitipupa Constituency 2, has been selected as the new Deputy Speaker, while Mr Olatunji Oshati, from Ose State Constituency, has assumed the role of Majority Leader.
