The impeached Lagos State House of Assembly speaker, Mudashiru Obasa has cried out to Nigerians.

He said: “Having an ambition to become a governor is not a sin. However, I said on the floor of the house when the budget was presented that I had no thoughts of governorship but that does not mean I am not qualified or that I lack experience and I still maintain that.”

“I’m still the speaker until the right thing has been done.”

For those who don’t know, Obasa was removed as Lagos speaker on Monday, January 13, 2025. He was impeached by the State House of Assembly members over alleged misconduct and sundry offenses.

However, his deputy, Mojisola Meranda was immediately elected the new Speaker.
