These are the new speakers of Lagos, Ogun states

At the inauguration of the 8th assembly, new speakers emerge in both Lagos state and Ogun state. Mudashiru Obasa, the lawmaker representing Agege Constituency 1, was elected Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly. Suraj Adekunbi returns as Speaker for another four years of the Ogun State House of Assembly.

Obasa, who is believed to enjoy the backing of a national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Bola Tinubu, was elected unopposed.

On the floor of the assembly Monday, Obasa, a fourth term legislator, was nominated by Olanrewaju Oshun of Mainland Constituency II (who was named as one of the front runners for the position) and Sola Giwa of Lagos Island constituency II seconded the motion.

Adekunbi, who represents Yewa (Egbado) North 1 Constituency, was nominated for office again on the floor of the House by Ojodu Olayiwola from Abeokuta North State Constituency without opposition, while the Deputy Speaker is Kunle Oluomo, a lawmaker from Ifo state Constituency1.

While his first tenure as Speaker lasted, the state Assembly passed 44 bills, 60 resolutions and executed 161 constituency projects.
