    We Reject Obasa Totally, This Embarassment Must Stop – Lagos Lawmakers

    Thirty-six members of the Lagos State House of Assembly loyal to Mojisola Meranda on Thursday reaffirmed that the removal of Mudashiru Obasa as Speaker was final, declaring Meranda as the legitimate leader of the House.

    The lawmakers convened at the Assembly garden, maintaining their stance based on their February 17 vote of confidence in Meranda, despite Obasa’s return.

    Chairman of the House Committee on Information, Strategy, and Security, Stephen Ogundipe, condemned the ongoing situation and called for calm.

    He said: “This is Lagos, the State House of Assembly. We’re shocked to see what’s happening here today.We expect our leaders, who earlier told us to remain calm, to come and address us and tell us where we went wrong or what really went wrong”.

    “We won’t take laws into our hands, but we belong to different constituencies and we have our mandates. Whatever is going to happen, the leadership should speak with us and not this charade we’re witnessing.

    “We are humiliated by this action. I was stopped at the gate from entering the assembly chamber. This is an embarrassment, and it must stop”.

    “We are not against the leadership’s decisions, but they should call us and tell us instead of hearing rumours. They’re our leaders, we’ll still stand and obey their decisions”

    “We reject Obasa in totality,” he declared.

    The lawmakers also chorused, “We reject Obasa in totality.”
