The just-reinstated Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, on Monday presided over the assembly’s plenary shortly after Ms. Mojisola Meranda stepped down as speaker.
After a short plenary, Obasa also adjourned plenary “sine die” (indefinitely).
In his speech, Obasa said: “I thank Meranda who has been supportive and loyal as Deputy Speaker. I also thank all the lawmakers for their loyalty.
“Today is not the day for speech making. It is a day to celebrate my colleagues and thank them for all they have been doing.
“I want to thank our elders, Bisi Akande, Olusegun Osoba, GAC members, Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Obafemi Hamzat and other party leaders for their support.
“Our major responsibility is to represent Lagosians. This house is a house of integrity.”
