Anifowoshe, in an exclusive interview with TimesNow.com.ng, posited that the development is a testament that the dynamic is shifting in Lagos politics. She cited the constitution’s justification for the lawmakers’ decision to impeach the speaker.

However, the legal luminary maintained that it could lead to strategic restructuring within the assembly, considering Obasa’s political influence. Obasa has held elective positions since 1999. She projected that the move could reshape the structure of governance in Lagos.

Anifowoshe’s comment reads:

She then questioned the timing of Obasa’s removal. She asked if the impeachment was to set the stage for 2027 or a response to public outcry against the Agege-born politician. She said:

TimesNow.com.ng earlier reported that Mudashiru Obasa’s legal credentials have been questioned after a Supreme Court document surfaced on social media.

Obasa’s name was reportedly missing from the Roll of Legal Practitioners in Nigeria, despite his claim to have a law degree from LASU.

The document was dated July 24, 2020, and was signed by Gertrude Karenton-Mordi on behalf of the Supreme Court’s chief registrar.
