Members of the Lagos State House of Assembly on Monday impeached Speaker Mudashiru Obasa, accusing him of multiple statutory and financial infractions.
Mr. Obasa was immediately replaced by his erstwhile deputy, Hon Mojisola Lasbat Meranda. Mrs. Miranda, who represents Apapa Constituency 1, was also a former chief whip of the House.
Obasa had allegedly withdrawn N43.5 billion for back-up vehicles for lawmakers, while he had also been accused of other controversial activities.
