Badagry lawmaker may become next Lagos Speaker - Obasa

 

Mudashiru Obasa, Lagos State House of Assembly (LAHA) Speaker says one of the Badagry representatives may succeed him.

He spoke on Wednesday at the donation of classrooms to Ajara Comprehensive Senior High School by Hon. Setonji David.

David represents Badagry II constituency, while Ibrahim Layode represents Badagry I constituency.

The duo are All Progressives Congress (APC) members.

“A Badagry representative stands a chance of becoming the Speaker if the people continue to send old and experienced representatives to the assembly”, NAN quoted him as saying.

“It is an old member that can call the commissioner or anybody in authority, because of his level of experience, to facilitate infrastructure development to his constituency.”

Obasa advised the people of Badagry to continue to support their sons.

The Speaker said since one of them is in his fourth term, there is a possibility of him leading the Lagos Assembly.

Obasa disclosed that being in the Lagos legislature for four terms helped him emerge as the Speaker.

It remains to be seen if Obasa’s hint is part of the APC or the Assembly’s calculations.
