The Lagos State House of Assembly lawmakers have declared Mudashiru Obasa as their new speaker.
This follows the resignation of Mojisola Meranda earlier on Monday.
Maranda assumed office on January 13, 2025, following the removal of the former Speaker Obasa.
The plenary is currently ongoing at the assembly chamber.
Hon. Noheem Adams of Eti Osa Constituency 1 nominated Obasa.
His nomination was seconded by Hon. Nureni Akinsaya of Mushin constituency.
Recall the Lagos Assembly crisis began after 32 lawmakers removed Obasa and ex-Clerk Olalekan Onafeko in January.
However on Monday, March 3, Meranda resigned as speaker.
Meranda was nominated and sworn-in as the deputy speaker of the house.
