Lagos State House of Assembly lawmakers have affirmed their support for the Rt. Hon. Mojisola Meranda as Speaker of the Assembly.

The decision was taken at a crucial meeting of Governance Advisory Council (GAC) meeting which held in Lagos.

Change of Name

The meeting which lasted for seven hours was attended by members of GAC and 39 members of Lagos State House of Assembly with exception of the embattled Mudashir Obasa.

CAPITAL POST earlier reported that the former Speaker, Mudashir Obasa was claiming to remain in office as Speaker when he was addressing his supporters and sympathisers last week in Lagos, but the latest meeting has finally put paid to his Speakership with lawmakers insisting that he has been impeached finally.

It was also gathered that the proposal to zone the office of the Speaker of Lagos State Assembly be zoned to Lagos West failed and members insisted that the female lawmaker who succeeded Mudashir Obasa remains the Speaker of the Assembly.

Obasa was impeached on 13th January, 2025 when he travelled out of the country to the United States, on allegation of financial misappropriation and high handedness.
