The Festus
Ebea led Edo State House of Assembly has commenced renovation of the house
including re-roofing of part of the assembly complex allegedly vandalized in
the wake of the crisis rocking the house.
The speaker of
the PDP faction, Festus Ebea addressing news men on Wednesday said the
renovation became necessary to avoid further wilful destruction of the
facilities.
He said they
will not allow the state governor, Adams Oshiomhole to pocket the legislative
arm of government against the will of the masses.
Festus Ebea
also disclosed that the crisis between the two factions might not be resolved
till their tenure elapse February, 2015 as the governor is hell bent on sustaining
the quarrel.
He condemned
the recent trip embarked by the state governor, alongside other members of the
state cabinet including the 15 APC legislators to United States of America
where they allegedly squandered state funds.
The nine PDP
legislators later held plenary at the chambers where they summoned the state
Director of Federal Road Maintenance Agency, FERMA to appear before them on
Monday 15th September, 2014.
Mr Festus
Ebea, who led the PDP faction during its plenary in Benin, said the FERMA
director should explain alleged misconduct of some officials of the
Edo State
Traffic Management Agency on federal roads in the state.
Ebea said
the House had passed a resolution calling on EDSTMA officials to stop further
harassment of road users on federal trunk roads in the state.
