The development comes amid an ongoing dispute within the Edo State House of Assembly over its leadership and other internal matters.
Very Nigerian reported that Agbebaku, who represents Owan West Constituency, had, on Monday, August 17, 2026, resigned his position as the Speaker of the House. Yekini Idaiye, the lawmaker representing Akoko-Edo 1, was then elected in his place as the new Speaker.
