The Speaker of Ondo State House of Assembly, Olamide Oladiji, on Monday, confirmed that fetish items were placed in front of his official residence.
Oladiji confirmed the development while addressing newsmen in Akure, Ondo State capital.
He claimed that lawmakers at the House had been having sleepless nights since they commenced the impeachment process against the state deputy governor, Lucky Ayedatiwa.
Oladiji said, “Early this morning, we discovered that a sacrifice was placed in the lodge. Aside from that, I have been receiving strange calls from strange people threatening my life and other members.
“l am using the medium to tell the world that my life is under threat. I call on the security operatives to checkmate these people who have been threatening my life and other members.
“This threat started since the day we began the impeachment process. I have already reported to NSCDC among other security agencies.”
According to the Speaker, the House has been unable to serve Aiyedatiwa the impeachment notice since last week.
Oladiji, however, claimed that the House has secured a court affidavit to serve the deputy governor the letter through other means.
He further stated that all the twenty-six lawmakers in the House had appended their signatures on the petition for the impeachment of the deputy governor.
Oladiji distanced lawmakers in the House from the reports that they collected N5 million each to initiate the impeachment process.
He said that the 10th assembly under his watch would not compromise.
