The Ondo State House of Assembly has instructed Chief Judge Justice Olusegun Odusola to form a seven-member panel to investigate allegations of gross misconduct against Deputy Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa.

This move comes after the Assembly initiated impeachment proceedings, presenting 14 misconduct allegations to Aiyedatiwa.

Speaker Olamide Oladiji confirmed Aiyedatiwa's failure to address the allegations, noting that the deputy governor's Chief Protocol Officer had received the notice on his behalf.
