New Lagos Speaker Visits Governor Sanwo-Olu’s Residence, Meets with GAC [VIDEO]

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the leader of the state legislature also had a meeting with members of the Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC), a powerful group that wields considerable influence in Lagos State’s politics.

According to Meranda, who spoke briefly to the press after the meeting, the purpose of the visit was to seek the blessings of the GAC leaders and to brief them on the events that transpired at the House of Assembly on Monday.

“We are here to brief them about what happened at the House of Assembly yesterday, to seek their blessings, and which we have gotten,” Meranda said.

The meeting, which lasted for several hours, was still ongoing, with members of the GAC continuing their discussions at the Lagos House.

Meanwhile, Governor Sanwo-Olu has denied any involvement in the impeachment of the former Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa. Through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr Gboyega Akosile, Sanwo-Olu refuted claims suggesting his role in Obasa’s removal, labelling it a purely legislative matter.

“There is absolutely no truth to the rumour that the governor influenced the impeachment. It was strictly a decision made by the lawmakers,” Akosile told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday. He added that Governor Sanwo-Olu is focused on addressing the needs of over 20 million Lagosians and that the events that transpired in the Assembly were entirely within the prerogative of the legislators.What Is Your Opinion On This?
