Lagos state Governor, Babatunde Fashola has called on President Goodluck Jonathan to intervene in the crisis rocking the Ekiti state house of assembly.

Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, Friday said President Goodluck Jonathan “has a moral role now to play" in the manner the Speaker of Ekiti State House of Assembly, Dr. Adewale Omirin was impeached by seven lawmakers.

The governor sought the president’s intervention when 19 lawmakers elected on the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC) protested Omirin’s impeachment at the Lagos House, Ikeja.

Fashola, who described it as unconstitutional, said there “are rules in the house about how the leader emerges and how he could be removed. Sometimes this contest gets intense. But the truth must be the truth.”

He, therefore, said Jonathan “has a moral role now to play on this issue. This conflict is formed on partisan confrontation. As the leader of one side, I hope he will perform the leadership right required in this issue.”
