The Osun group demanded the resignation of the speaker Egbedun, an impeachment of alleged threats to the king

A civil society organization, Osun Justice for all forums, has issued a 48 -hour ultimatum to the speaker of the House of the State Assembly of Osun, RT. Hon. Adewale Egbedun, to resign from the office after a leaky audio circulation where he was suspected of threatening the age of Oba Oyewale Olasunnmi Isaac, ASI ASI, in the local government of Odo-otin in Osun state.

The group, in a statement by the organizers, Ajibade Adeshina on Wednesday, described the contents of the audio as “despicable, careless, and abuse of dangerous power,” warning that if the speaker fails to resign, members of the Osun state council must begin the impeachment process without delay to “calculate the honor and satisfy the state and satisfy the state.

The votes in the audio, which have been widely distributed throughout the social media platform, allegedly from the Egbedun speaker. Heard issued a direct threat to the king in harsh language, threatening, raising a serious question about his temperament and fitness to hold public office.

“The voice record that is said to be associated with the speaker of the State Assembly Osun cannot come from a responsible leader who occupies such an elevated office, especially when the vitriol referred to is thrown at the traditional authorities, and not just any king, but one of his hometown,” said the group.

While acknowledging that audio has not been officially verified, Osun justice for all forums states that the history of the speakers who are well documented about rude behavior of traditional rulers, journalists, and lawyers make accusations fully trusted.

This is not the first time the speaker Egbedun has been criticized by his behavior. In February 2025, he attracted a widespread criticism of his comments about Aragbiji Iragbiji, Oba Abdulrasheed Ayotunde Olabomi Odundun, after the King raised concerns about government white paper about tribal chief problems. In response, Egbedun openly stated that “he [the Aragbiji] Not above the law and must remember that he remains the subject of the governor, “while also rejecting the royal father’s media briefing as the” theater media that expresses the lack of politeness. “He described the king’s position as” ridiculous and regrettable, “and warned that” If he let his pride obscure his judgment, he will face his consequences. “

The statement was widely distributed throughout the media platform, condemned as a bright insult to the Yoruba cultural institution.

In his statement, Osun justice for all forums also made a catalog of several previous incidents involving speakers, including allegations of physical violence against journalists, verbal attacks on lawyers, and the use of inflammatory and rough language of critics and political opponents.

This group has now changed his call to the Head of the State Executive, Governor Ademola Adeleke, urged him to deny the behavior of the speaker Egbedun and take firm action to keep his government from what he called “the source of shame and not revealed.”

“We called for Adeleke Ademola Governor to wean the embarrassing administration Adewale Egbedun had become. The speaker not only contaminated the image of the Assembly but dragged all governments led by Adeleke into unnecessary controversy. The Governor must act decisively, before this poisonous behavior consumes its credibility.

According to the forum organizer, the speaker has become a “moral burden on the assembly and shames for people both in the state of Osun.”

“We are unable to sit and watch a man who is a striking behavior of politeness and politeness depleting both our political institutions and our cultural heritage. The speaker must resign within 48 hours. Failure, we urged honors from the Osun State Council to do what is needed by starting the impeachment process without delay.” “

Further groups warn that power must be done with dignity, noting:

“When the Yoruba saying goes, ‘If the field fails to expose a man, the house will.’ Egbedun’s speaker must be reminded that long after Palu was silent, he would return to the same traditional institutions he was now underestimated. “

When public anger grows, political observers in Osun said the future days might determine for the speakers of Egbedun and the House of the Assembly, because the call for accountability to increase. The speaker has not issued an official statement about the audio leaked when submitting this report.
