Edo Assembly dissolves LG councils

The Edo State House of Assembly on Monday dissolved the transition committees of the 18 local government councils in the state ordering the Chairmen to hand over to the Head of Personnel Management (HPM).
The dissolution is sequel to a matter of public urgent importance moved by the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) member representing Egor constituency, Paul Ohonbamu and seconded the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) member representing Esan North East Constituency II, Emma Okoduwa.
The Speaker of the House, Uyi Igbe ordered the transitional committee executives to return all properties within their possession to the Head of Services at the various councils before the end of work on Monday saying the dissolution was timely as transition committee chairmen have been in office for over two years now.
The democratically elected council administration in the state was dissolved in 25 October 2010 by Governor Adams Oshiomhole and was replaced by an adhoc “Transition committee”.
