Some aggrieved members of the Lagos State House of Assembly have alleged that the Speaker, Mr Mudashiru Obasa, removed some principal officers of the body because they did not support the Pension Bill
in favour of Speaker and Deputy Speaker in the 8th Assembly.
The Assembly on Thursday set up a committee to probe the crisis and reconcile parties. All 40 legislators in the assembly are members of the All Progressives Congress. He alleged that some of the issues relating to the crisis in the Assembly had to do with some members’ opposition to the Pension Bill during the 8th Assembly.
The lawmaker added, “Eleven months ago, the Assembly bought Toyota Corolla as our backup vehicles. Some members were being arrested for not having Customs papers to cover the vehicles. We approached him on that development to follow due process by making available the needed papers, but he became annoyed. None of us knew the dealers. There are a lot of things that he is doing wrong but when you try to correct him, he takes it against you.
