OpEd: Speaker Obasa In Tinubu's Lagos! By Ozodinukwe Okenwa | Sahara Reporters The (dis) Honourable Speaker of the House, Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, was reported to be living obscene opulent life on public funds, laundering some, siphoning some... READ MORE:
The US-based online hard-hitting investigative news portal, SaharaReporters, had for the past months, week in, week out, been reporting about the fiscal sleaze going on in the Lagos State House of Assembly.
The problem with Lagos State governed by an executive stooge, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, is that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu treats Lagos as a conquered territory! He single-handedly 'removed' Akinwumi Ambode as a potential two-term governor and 'coronated' Sanwo-Olu as his successor. Not that Ambode was exemplary in his official functions given the corruption allegations trailing his term but the way he was pushed out.
Tinubu 'owns' Lagos and he can do whatever he wants with his state! Speaker Obasa remains in his good books; that is why no revelation of fiscal scandal or malfeasance has done any damage to the legislative system he presides with little or no accountability. While President Buhari had promised in his first coming as a repentant 'democrat' in 2015 to deal decisively with graft the anti-graft campaign has done little or nothing to dissuade looters and ten-percenters in the system. Rather than abate corruption is worse now than ever before!
