Meranda Resigned As House Re-Elected Obasa As Speaker

The Lagos State House of Assembly has reinstated Mudashiru Obasa as Speaker, nearly two months after his impeachment in January.

The announcement was made in the House chamber on Monday, following the resignation of Speaker Moji Meranda, bringing an end to weeks of internal disputes within the Assembly.

Mr Obasa dismissed his impeachment as a mere joke, insisting that it did not follow due process.

He also assured that he would not take any action against the more than 30 legislators who voted for his removal, referring to them as his “brothers and sisters.”
