The Lagos State House of Assembly has impeached Mudashiru Obasa, the Speaker of the House.
According to FIJ, multiple house correspondents confirmed Obasa was impeached on Monday afternoon.
He was accused of multiple statutory and financial infractions.
Obasa was subsequently replaced by his deputy Mojisola Meranda.
Mrs Meranda, who represents Apapa Constituency 1, was also a former chief whip of the house.
Mojeed Fatai is now the Deputy Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly.
Obsaa has been engulfed in a series of controversial circumstances in terms of financial dealings.
The removal comes barely a month after Obasa was accused of allegedly spending N17 billion to fix a gate that leads to the assembly.
