A video of the supporters of the impeached Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, singing President Tinubu‘s supporters anthem “On Your Mandate” while detained in a police van on Monday afternoon, January 13, has surfaced.
The 52-year-old lawmaker, representing Agege Constituency I, was removed from office on Monday over allegations of gross misconduct and abuse of power.
Mojisola Meranda, the former deputy speaker, has since been elected as his successor.
Following the impeachment, a group of men reportedly loitering near the assembly complex were arrested by the police.
In a viral video, the detained men, speaking through the van’s window shutters, claimed to be members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from Agege Constituency.
