A fresh controversy has emerged in the Lagos State House of Assembly as Niniola Adegoke, Special Assistant on Youth Affairs and Special Duties to ousted Speaker Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, has alleged that lawmakers were financially induced to impeach him.
Speaking in an interview with News Central TV, Adegoke claimed that each legislator received ₦30 million on January 13, 2025, in exchange for supporting Obasa’s impeachment and endorsing Mojisola Meranda as the new Speaker.
“The reason why they impeached Obasa is because of their belly. It was their belly that decided their direction. I am telling you for free. Those people don’t really mean what they did,” Adegoke alleged.
He further challenged the lawmakers to deny the claim, stating, “Anybody that bases his or her relationship with whosoever is on that seat doesn’t have integrity. None of them can come out and tell me they didn’t collect money. Each of them went home with ₦30 million on January 13. Let them come and tell Lagosians that they didn’t receive a kobo before they did what they did.”
As Lagosians react to these claims, the lawmakers implicated in the allegation are yet to respond. Meanwhile, the Assembly leadership is expected to issue a statement clarifying the situation.
