Obasa Speaks

of the Lagos State House of Assembly have dismissed Mudashiru Obasa’s claim that he remains the Speaker, insisting that Mojisola Meranda remains their leader, News360 Nigeria reports.

Obasa, who was impeached on January 13, returned to the Assembly complex today, February 27, with security operatives, coinciding with the recent withdrawal of security aides assigned to Speaker Meranda.

Speaking on behalf of the lawmakers, Stephen Ogundipe, representing Oshodi-Isolo Constituency 1, urged the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos to step in and resolve the ongoing leadership crisis.


“We were asked by our leaders to remain calm and take things easy, but we are surprised by what is happening today,” Ogundipe said.

“We won’t take the law into our hands, just as we have advised the staff not to. However, we represent different constituencies, and our mandates must be respected. Whatever needs to happen, the leadership should engage us instead of this charade we are witnessing.

“We have been law-abiding and have not acted against the state. But we also deserve respect and recognition as elected officials. I appeal to our party leadership—this situation cannot continue like this.”

You sneaked in from the official recess of the HoA to execute a coup , now Speaker Obasa came in during recess to take over too. Ojoro cancelled.

This your masquerade dancing in the village square, onilu yin wa ni tosi.
Very soon, the mask will be removed and those sponsoring you against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will be revealed.

You plotted to remove a whole Speaker while the Speaker and your political Leader, President Bola Tinubu, were away and not even given a chance to defend themselves. If nothing is done to rein you in, one day, we will wake up to read in the newspaper that you have impeached HE Babajide Sanwo-Olu nah.

But honestly, it still bewilders me that majority member of a State Assembly will legally impeach the Speaker - with the governor's backing - for gross misconduct and financial misappropriations, and ONE MAN from Abuja (who calls himself president) would want to override the decision, because he considers himself alpha and omega over them.

What nonsense! Is the LSHA an assemblage of pauppets or dummies?

Thuggery is what they thrive on. Imagine a former speaker so emboldened, like this, after he has been rejected by his equals. I will not be surprised if they are all arrested and made to sign under duress. grin grin grin grin grin
