PRINCE GANNY AWOBAJO: HON SOB AGUNBIADE IS IKORODU’S CLOSEST OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE THE NEXT SPEAKER OF LAGOS STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY ®™√ INN Nigeria © 94benek7E27678552278238744928. The Chief Editor of Ikorodu Newspaper, Prince Ganny Awobajo has weighed his viewpoint on the current race of prospective candidates trotting for Ikorodu Constituency 1 house of assembly seat. Awobajo, an elder statesman who has successfully run his news publication agency for over 36 years crouched with Ikorodu News Network (INN) on the 9th of April 2022, discharging his intuition on the present political trajectory and viable aftermath of the election as it pertains to Ikorodu constituency 1. In his statement, the senior Ikorodu insider affirmed that Ikorodu constituency 1 has nothing to forfeit but more to amass if the attending Majority Leader of the house returns for another tenure. "If Hon SOB Agunbiade (who's also the National Chairman of the Nigeria Majority Leaders' Forum) returns to the Lagos State house of assembly for another term, there is a likelihood of him becoming the next Speaker of the house which would be an enormous advantage to the entire Ikorodu division, not just constituency 1 alone" "We can all see Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa (speaker of the house), and his accomplishments in Agege local government as a direct effect of his leveraging position. Peeking at the bigger picture beyond the ongoing campaigns, Ikorodu stands to gain a lot if Agunbiade, who's presently the Majority Leader of the house subsequently becomes the Speaker (which can only happen if he returns)" "I don't want to lunge into his accomplishments because I am not a politician, nor am I in support of any candidates, but we shouldn't quickly shirk the fact that Agunbiade has become one of the finest legislators in Lagos State with good experience to approximate" Hon SOB Agunbiade is a two-time award recipient for the best lawmaker in plenary session, known for spearheading the 8-Man Ad hoc Committee on Land Grabbers activities, undertaking legislative framework for effective policy regime to ensure property protection in Lagos State. As the primary elections for LSHA draw closer with campaigns heating up at all sides across the division, Awobajo further amplified his message to political leaders and stakeholders to caution their wards on making the communities safe and conducive for every inhabitant despite the close up primary season. Awobajo continued, "This is the period where we begin to see oppositions from different corners, the primary election comes up in May 2022, it has been our tradition that as the days draw near, disputes will arise between candidates for reasons unknown" "But I which to use this medium to call on all our political leaders, gatekeepers and stakeholders to see to it that nothing of violence should ensue from this political process. What will be will be, but not at the expense of innocent civilians" "We must guarantee that all candidates are convened to mandate and counsel consequently to impede every form of bad blood and controversies from serving the norms in our political system" Prince Awobajo asserted

PHOTOS AS SPEAKER OBASA, LAWMAKERS GET CERTIFICATE OF RETURN, LEGISLATORS THANK LAGOSIANS FOR MANDATE ®™√ INN Nigeria © 94o3k3kkekem4170277452452899701 The Speaker of the Lagos Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa and other lawmakers-elect received their Certificate of Return from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Thursday promising to ensure a greater Lagos at the 10th Assembly. "On behalf of my colleagues, we will continue to build on the success of the current Assembly when we resume for the 10th Assembly. We want to assure Lagosians that we will continue to make laws and pass motions and resolutions that will bring progress to Lagos and protect the interests of residents. "That's the assurance that I have from the 39 other members-elect," Dr Obasa told journalists at the event which had Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Deputy Governor Obafemi Hamzat in attendance. A total of 38 lawmakers-elect from the All Progressives Congress (APC) and two from the opposition received their Certificate of Return. The Speaker thanked his constituents in Agege and Lagosians for their support for the APC. "I thank my people in Agege for their consistency, loyalty and support at all times. And to Lagosians, we say thank you. At least APC has 38 lawmakers-elect out of the 40 for the House of Assembly. We have three senatorial seats and a whole lot in the House of Representatives. We are very happy about this and have reasons to thank Lagosians. "We are going to support the Governor in his assignments to bring growth and progress to Lagos State as well as protect the lives and property of our people. However, supporting the executive arm does not mean we are going to compromise or abandon our constitutionally guaranteed responsibilities," Obasa said. He expressed optimism that Lagos will benefit from the centre in the next administration because "we have a President-elect that we all have absolute confidence in and who had done very well in Lagos State with a good track record. "We are sure that with him, many of our national challenges would be resolved because he has the capacity and knowledge to deliver. I do not doubt in my mind about it."

TINUBU @71: WHY PRESIDENT-ELECT IS GOD’S GIFT TO NIGERIA – OBASA ®™√ INN Nigeria © img 20230330 wa00028587412206409722933 Nigeria's President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is one of God's gifts to Nigeria, the most populous black nation on earth, Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa has said. Dr Obasa said this in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Eromosele Ebhomele, congratulating Tinubu who clocked 71 on Wednesday, March 29, 2023. The Speaker said Tinubu, a puzzle too hard to crack', equates with great men around the world whose stories show great passion and undying love for their countries and citizens. According to him, the recent presidential election won by Asiwaju Tinubu is icing on the cake for the President-elect, who has never shied away from being of service to God and humanity. The Speaker recalled the sacrifice Tinubu made to take Nigeria back from the military and entrench democracy in the country, noting how difficult it is to find individuals with such a level of patriotism. "For a man, whose thought at all times is about salvaging the country from economic and social bondage, victory at the recent polls came at the right time. "There is no way Nigeria's political story can be written without Asiwaju featuring prominently as a result of the positive roles he played before the current democratic dispensation and up till this moment. "We believe that Almighty Allah has a reason for giving him to us in Nigeria, especially at this time of the nation's journey. We do not doubt his capacity to deliver. He has done it before. "With a birthday that comes exactly two months to his oath-taking as President of Nigeria, it is not out of place to say Asiwaju is a blessing to us, one sent to put things right and lay the foundation upon which modern Nigeria would be built. "On behalf of my family, members, staff and management of the Lagos State House of Assembly, I congratulate our dear Asiwaju on his 71st birthday and pray that Allah continues to favour him with vitality, good health and wisdom to navigate our country out of the woods, amin," Obasa prayed.
