MojiSola Meranda has officially assumed the role of Speaker in the Lagos State House of Assembly following the impeachment of her predecessor, Mudashiru Obasa, on 13th January 2025. The impeachment came after serious allegations of misconduct and misappropriation of funds, which Obasa has strongly denied, calling the process unconstitutional and threatening legal action. Meranda’s appointment was marked by a prayer session for unity among House members, but Obasa’s absence and the presence of tight security at the Assembly raise questions about the future of the leadership. Legal practitioner Liborous Oshoma joins us to discuss the political fallout, the likely next steps for Obasa, and the implications of this ongoing crisis for Lagos State’s political landscape.
