The Chief Judge (CJ) of Ondo State, Justice Oluwatoyin Akeredolu says the state House of Assembly has not done its work to warrant her office to set up a probe panel to investigate the Deputy Governor, Agboola Ajayi.

Justice Akeredolu in the letter said she had also received a letter from Ajayi’s lawyers stating that the process of the impeachment was sub judice.
