A member of the Lagos State House of Assembly who represents Epe Constituency 1, Abiodun Tobun, says members of the parliament in the state sacked Mudashiru Obasa as Speaker on Monday to uphold the “sanctity” and “integrity” of the House.

Tobun told reporters that the decision to impeach Obasa was unanimously agreed by lawmakers in the 40-member Assembly.

He said, “The Constitution makes it clear that the House has the powers to regulate its proceedings. So, the members of the House felt that they’ve had enough of the Rt Hon Mudashiru Obasa and today, we have unanimously agreed that Rt Hon Mojisola Meranda Lasbat become the new Speaker of the House.

“So, it was a resolution concurred to by all members of the parliament and so be it. We cannot open our House and allow this parliament to dwindle. We owe our constituents a duty and we owe Lagos State a duty of ensuring that the sanctity of the House and the integrity of this House are restored.”
