Lagos Court Reinstates Obasa, Declares Speaker’s Removal Illegal




The Lagos High Court sitting in Ikeja has ruled that the removal of Mudashiru Obasa as Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly was illegal, unconstitutional, and therefore null and void.


Delivering judgment on Wednesday, the court also set aside all proceedings and resolutions made by the House on January 13, 2025 the day Obasa was ousted from office.

Obasa had challenged his removal in court, filing a suit against the Lagos State House of Assembly and Mojisola Meranda, who was appointed Speaker following his dismissal.


The court’s decision effectively restores Obasa to his position as Speaker, voiding the actions taken by the Assembly during the disputed session.
