Akinruntan who is the son of the Olugbo of Ugbo in Ilaje local government area, Oba Frederick Obateru Akinruntan, stepped down as Deputy Speaker and was consequently replaced by Hon. Ololade Gbegudu from Okitipupa local government.

In his resignation letter, Akinruntan who did not disclose the reason for his resignation, appreciated members of the Assembly for unanimously electing him as Deputy Speaker of the 10th Assembly during its inauguration.

 

LEADERSHIP gathered that the sudden resignation of the Deputy Speaker may be due to political considerations.
