Just in: Lawmakers impeach Lagos Speaker Obasa 

Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, was on Monday impeached over multi-billion naira fraud allegations.

He was subsequently replaced by his deputy, Mrs Lasbat Meranda. Meranda, representing Apapa Constituency 1, was also a former chief whip of the House.

Obasa was said to have overseen the withdrawal of N43.5 billion for back up vehicles for lawmakers, among other alleged financial misconduct.
