Obasa was impeached on Monday over allegations of fraud, a move Oki said was long overdue.
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Fouad Oki has justified the impeachment of Mudashiru Obasa as the speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly.
The APC chieftain was featured on Monday’s edition of Channels Television’sPolitics Todaywhere he said President Bola Tinubu tried to resolve the crisis in the Lagos State Assembly but Obasa was recalcitrant.
“Before the president came home, this issue had been lingering. In the wisdom of members of the Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC), the president’s attention was called,” Oki said on the show.
“The president, as father and leader, called a meeting wherein he tried to make a sense out of the observations raised by elders of the party. Unfortunately, the president saw by himself a recalcitrant [Obasa]. I think that is what broke the camel’s back.”
