Tinubu holds meeting with Obasa Meranda others at Villa
Members of the Lagos State House of Assembly have arrived at the State House in Abuja for a crucial meeting with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
As of the latest report, the legislators, who arrived in two coaster buses, have been allowed into the President’s office area where they are awaiting the meeting.
The delegation includes both the reinstated Speaker, Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, and the ousted Speaker, Hon. Mojisola Miranda, signaling the ongoing power struggle within the Assembly.
While Meranda arrived with her colleagues at some minutes past 2pm, Obasa arrived separately at about 2:50pm.
The meeting may not be unconnected with the recent leadership crisis in the State House of Assembly.
It would be recalled that Hon. Obasa was impeached as Speaker by a majority of his colleagues, but he was latter reinstated after the intervention of the political leaders especially the Governor’s Advisory Council, (GAC).
Despite the Speaker’s reinstatement, it was gathered that the bad blood as a result of his impeachment is yet to be over.
