The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mojisola Meranda has raised alarm over her safety as all her security details as well as those securing the Assembly complex, have been withdrawn with immediate effect.
The Speaker’s Special Adviser on Information, Mr. Victor Ganzallo, expressed deep concern over the abrupt withdrawal of security personnel, saying the development has left both the Speaker and the legislative building vulnerable.
“As we speak, all security has been withdrawn from the Speaker, and she is now on her own,”Ganzallo stated.
He warned that the Speaker is now “vulnerable and open to attack,” emphasizing the urgent need for a resolution to the security lapse.
The reason for the withdrawal remains unclear, and there has been no official statement from the Lagos State Police Command or the state government regarding the development.
This situation raises concerns about the safety of government officials and the security of the Lagos Assembly premises.
