After the impeachment of former Speaker Mudashiru Obasa on Tuesday, the Lagos State House of Assembly has maintained a surprisingly quiet atmosphere. Security measures have been adjusted with personnel changes at critical points around the Assembly complex.
Although several lawmakers met with Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the details of their discussions remain undisclosed. Sources close to the situation have hinted that while updates will be forthcoming, they are currently under instruction to keep silent on the matter.
The ceremonial mace, which was at risk of being taken by thugs supposedly loyal to Obasa, has been moved to a more secure location to prevent any further disturbances.
The absence of many staff members appointed by the former speaker has contributed to the reduced activity level within the Assembly, with everyone seemingly waiting for new directives from the newly appointed speaker.
This shift in leadership has left the Assembly in a state of anticipation, as everyone watches for the next steps in governance and leadership transitions.
