In a swift turn of events, Hon. Mojisola Lasbat Meranda was sworn in as the new Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly and The Deputy Chief Whip, Hon Fatai Mojeed is elected as the Deputy Speaker.

This marks a historic moment as she becomes the first female Speaker of the state assembly. Hon. Meranda, who, brings a wealth of legislative experience to the role, having served in the assembly with distinction.

During her swearing-in ceremony, Hon. Meranda addressed her colleagues and the public, pledging to lead with transparency, inclusivity, and a commitment to the welfare of Lagos residents. She emphasized the need for unity and collaboration among lawmakers to ensure the state legislature continues to deliver on its mandate.
