Speaking with ait.live in Ilorin, the state capital, the Chairman of the Elders Council, Abdul Ganiyu Agbaji, urged the trio to henceforth stop parading themselves as executive members of the Association pending when all allegations leveled against them are resolved and they are cleared.
However, a caretaker committee has been set up to manage the affairs of the union led by Abiola Adegoke alongside ten other members.
Meanwhile, the Association said it is competent in handling all forms of engineering constructions and warned the public not to transact any business with any of the suspended members on behalf of the Association pending the time they will be cleared of the allegations against them.
To boost the economy of the state, the current administration has granted the indigenous contractors about 64 contracts to construct V.I.P toilets across the state.
