‘Obasa’s fall from power, inevitable, law of karma’ – Ex-minister

RIPPLES NIGERIA

Major General Tajudeen Olanrewaju (retd.), former Minister of Communications and Alternate Chairman of the Board of Trustees (BOT) for De Renaissance Patriots, has described the impeachment of Mr. Mudashiru Obasa, former Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, as a consequence of his actions while in office.

In a statement released by the Media Office of De Renaissance Patriots Foundation, Olanrewaju argued that Obasa’s political downfall was inevitable, citing what he referred to as the Law of Karma.

“Karma is both action and the consequences of that action; it is cause and effect simultaneously because every action generates a force of energy that returns to us in like kind. There is nothing unfamiliar about the Law of Karma. Everybody has heard the expression, ‘What you sow is what you reap,’” Olanrewaju stated.

He accused Obasa of exceeding his political boundaries while in office, describing his actions as a miscalculation of power.

“The choices that the former Speaker Obasa made while on his exalted seat were that he overstepped his political boundary in many ways. Politicians, while playing their political ping pong game of arrogance and seeking more power in search of a dynastic crown, particularly in Lagos State, ignored the slippery ground,” he said.
