Lagos Assembly Speaker, Obasa, Impeached

Members of the Lagos State Assembly on Monday impeached Speaker Mudashiru Obasa, accusing him of multiple statutory and financial infractions.

Chief Obasa was subsequently replaced by the Deputy Speaker, Mrs Mojisola Meranda.

Mrs Meranda, who represents Apapa Constituency 1, was also a former chief whip of the House.

The erstwhile speaker was not at the plenary where he was removed.

Mr Obasa, 52, was first elected Speaker on June 8, 2015, and was the longest serving member of the Lagos State Assembly having been elected into the state legislature since 2003.

The Clerk of the House, Mr Olalekan Onafeko has also been suspended. Barnabas Hunjo
