Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa has declared war on Senator Adebayo Osinowo a.k.a Pepperito.

Insiders told us that the battle line was drawn when the speaker suspended indefinitely four lawmakers including two principal officers; Mr. Rotimi Abiru – Chief Whip; Mr. Olumuyiwa Jimoh – Deputy Majority Leader; Mr. Moshood Oshun, and Mr. Raheem Kazeem who are loyalists of the senator.

A lawmaker told us that; “The Speaker believes that the officers were not supporting him but were instead plotting for him to fail.”

Sources squealed to us that the speaker is angry with the senator for maintaining a private office in the complex and his failure to vacate the office.

Speaker Obasa was said to have complained to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu about the senator’s continued stay in the complex, that it is not only an aberration but also denies space for elected members and career officers seconded to the assembly.

Tinubu was said to have ordered Osinowo to immediately vacate the office. This directive is the first time Tinubu has ever countered any move or action of Senator Osinowo, his political ally.

To show his anger against the senator, he dismissed the House Committee leadership positions submitted to him by Senator Osinowo and appointed his core loyalists into juicy committees.
