Former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani on Monday, gave five reasons responsible for the impeachment of Modashiru Obasa as Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly.
Sani said Obasa could have been impeached for allegedly colluding with Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s enemies.
Posting on X, he noted that the former Speaker could have been removed because he was plotting an impeachment.
He wrote: “FIVE factors that can lead to the impeachment of a Speaker of a State Assembly;Experiences from 1999
“When there is a strong suspicion that the Speaker is plotting impeachment.
“When the Speaker is becoming too independent and resist taking orders from the Governor.
“When the speaker is not “taking good care” of members and leaving them “hungry”.
“When the Speaker is deliberately delaying or obstructing the passage of Governor’s interested Bills.
“When the speaker is strongly accused of colluding with enemies of the Governor.”
Recall that lawmakers of the Lagos State House of Assembly had earlier impeached Obasa.
Hon Mrs Mojisola Miranda was immediately elected to replace Obasa as the new Speaker.
The new Speaker represents Apapa 1 constituency.
There’s heavy security presence around State House of Assembly.
Obasa’s impeachment comes amid reports that he was nursing governorship ambition in 2027.
