In a surprising development, Mudashiru Obasa, the Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, has been removed from office over allegations of gross misconduct and abuse of power.
The impeachment, carried out earlier today, January 13, garnered overwhelming support, with 90% of the lawmakers backing the decision.
Obasa’s ouster has cleared the path for Hon Mojisola Metanda, representing the Apapa 1 constituency, to step in as the new Speaker. This change signals a major shift in the leadership of the Lagos State House of Assembly.
