The House of Representatives may be poised to take over the affairs of the Edo state Assembly following the intractable crisis that hit the legislative house on June 17, 2019, according to reports from Abuja.

One of the reports, on Tuesday afternoon by Daily Independent, said that this followed a motion under matters of urgent public importance brought by Hon. Julius Ihonvbere calling attention to the need to correct constitutional breach by the government of Governor Godwin Obaseki.

“Members speaking on the matter roundly condemned what they described as “executive rascality” demonstrated by the state governor who allegedly inaugurated 9 out of 24 members at about 10 pm without properly issuing the executive proclamation,” the report said.
