The Lagos State House of Assembly experienced a pivotal moment on Monday as the new Speaker, Hon. Mojisola Meranda, assumed full control of the legislative body, receiving widespread support from fellow lawmakers.

The transition comes in the wake of the impeachment of former Speaker, Mudashiru Obasa, on January 13. Despite Obasa’s claim over the weekend that his removal was unconstitutional and his vow to resume work, he was noticeably absent from the assembly complex on Monday.

Amid heightened security to prevent any potential disruptions, Meranda’s leadership was met with enthusiasm and solidarity. Lawmakers accompanied her to the speaker’s office, symbolizing their collective endorsement of her new role.

The atmosphere in the assembly complex reflected a sense of calm and determination to move forward under the new leadership. Legislators were seen celebrating the transition, with some taking pictures with the new speaker, while the acting Clerk joined the momentous occasion.

Meranda, addressing her colleagues, emphasized her commitment to maintaining stability and ensuring the assembly remains focused on its legislative responsibilities.

Meanwhile, Obasa’s absence has sparked speculation about his next course of action, particularly after his assertion that he remains the legitimate speaker.

The lawmakers’ united support for Meranda signals a readiness to embrace her vision and steer the legislative house toward a new chapter.
