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.

According to a source, Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa hails from the local government and same constituency with the Deputy Speaker.

 

But another source, hinted that there has been a cold war between the Governor and the father of the Deputy Speaker, Oba Akinruntan.

Gbegudu , 42, was nominated by Oluwatoyin James from Akoko North-East local government and his nomination was seconded by Chris Aiyebusiwa from Okitipupa Constituency I.

The new deputy speaker served as Chairman of the House Committee on Security Matters and Community Development before his appointment.
