Edo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has alleged that people who were not elected as councilors on Friday, claimed to have impeached the chairman of Oredo local government area, Dr. Tom Obaseki.

The opposition party in the state described the impeachment as a precursor to dictatorship in the state.

Addressing journalists at the state secretariat of the party, the chairman, Caretaker Committee of PDP, Hon Tony Aziegbemi called on traditional rulers and opinion leaders to intervene in saving democracy in the state.

“We are asking, what is going on in Edo? How can this (impeachment) happen under this governor; how can he allow impostors to say that they have driven away the elected people in the council.

“People that didn’t contest elections, people that don’t have Certificate of Returns, they will just gather in one room and say they have impeached the leader of the House, they have impeached the council Chairman, and everyone is quiet?

“We have said this before, our traditional rulers, our opinion moulders, and our religious leaders in Edo State are letting down Edo people. If they imagine that this is about politics, that we should leave politicians to do what they do, it will get to a point where this sky will fall on everybody’s head.”

He called on President Bola Tinubu, the Inspector General of Police, Director General of Department of State Services (DSS) to urgently deal with the situation.

“So, we have deemed it necessary to invite you to have this emergency press conference and to call the attention of the President, the IGP, the DG SSS, to what is happening in Edo State this morning.

“We’re urging them, very urgently for that matter, to please take this issue very seriously and deal with it now that they can still deal with it.” Aziegbemi said.
