It would be recalled that Omirin, elected as the speaker on June 6, 2011, had alleged that a team of armed security operatives were deployed to the Assembly’s premises on November 17, 2014 and prevented the plaintiffs from conducting their legislative duties

He said: “Dr Omirin took his ‘Awada kerikeri’ to a ridiculous level when the twelve members of his gang met at a beer parlour joint in Lagos suburb and in his hallucination and day dreaming, Omirin stated that he was the Speaker of Ekiti State House of Assembly
Olugbemi, who said no sitting of the state House of Assembly took place on Friday, added: “The APC lawmakers could have met at a beer parlour in Ikoyi, Lagos or Osogbo, in Osun State
