Justice Ladiran Akintola of the Oyo State High Court has ordered that all impeachment processes of the State Deputy Governor, Rauf Olaniyan be put on hold.

The order was given on Wednesday when the case came up at Court 7 of the State High Court, Ring Road, Ibadan.

According to the Court, the status-quo must be maintained pending the hearing of the application for interlocutory injunctions before it.

Recall that the case which came up on Tuesday was adjourned till Wednesday due to the absence of the legal counsel to the Oyo State House of Assembly, the Speaker of the House and Clerk.

Olaniyan had dragged the parties to court to seek an injunction to stop what he described as “faulty process” of his impeachment.
