Obasa overrules Lagos Assembly lawmakers, says he remains their Speaker

 

Former Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, has insisted that he remains the rightful speaker of the assembly based on constitutional provisions.

Obasa made this declaration on Saturday in Ikeja GRA during a welcome event organized in his honor by supporters from Agege, Alimosho, and Kosofe local government areas.

Obasa was removed from office by his colleagues in the House over allegations of gross misconduct and financial mismanagement.

Addressing his removal, Obasa argued that the process did not follow constitutional procedures.

He, however, stated that he would accept his removal if it is carried out in accordance with constitutional guidelines.
