Reps urge Ajimobi to probe Akala's contracts

It urged that the Ajimobi administration to dissolve the state Judicial Service Commission (JSC), State Independent Electoral Commission (OSIEC), Civil Service Commission (CSC) and  Local Government Service Commission.

The resolution followed a motion by Felix Ige (Kajola Constituency), which was supported by the reinstated Majority Leader, Mr. Samuel Adejoumobi.

The House also directed the Ministry of Finance to obey the court order reinstating the hitherto suspended members by paying their outstanding salaries and allowances.
It adjourned till today.
