Oluwafunso said, “We are here to charge the members of the Ondo State House of Assembly to do their job concerning the recent fracas in the state. Like we all know that the house of assembly members are the lawmakers representing every constituency of this state and their to make laws for the state. We need them to act accordingly and do good stewardship of their works.

“We are charging them to do their jobs as the lawmakers. We want justice as concerned citizens on the state.

“What we need from them is accountability of public funds which they are in charge of. We plead that they do their jobs accordingly. We don’t want any forces to restrain them from doing their jobs.

“The law should take its course. They are the lawmakers and we them to consider the masses that sent them to represent the people, when doing their jobs. We want justice at the end of the day.
