Obasa’s deputy, Lasbat Meranda, who represents Apapa Constituency 1, has taken over as the new Speaker. Meranda’s experience as the Chief Whip of the House will likely serve her well in her new role.
It’s worth noting that Obasa had been a strong advocate for the Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) in Lagos, emphasizing their importance in effective local government administration.
However, the allegations against him have led to his removal, and it remains to be seen how Meranda will approach this and other key issues.
Meranda’s appointment as Speaker marks a significant shift in the leadership of the Lagos State House of Assembly.
As the new Speaker, she will be responsible for guiding the legislative agenda and ensuring the smooth operation of the House.
