Mudashiru Obasa, who presided over the plenary session on Monday, said no matter the threat by some persons, the Assembly will not reveal what it discovered during the screening of the rejected commissioner-nominees.
The
Speaker of the Lagos House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa has insisted that
lawmakers are not “fighting” Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
His
comments came about a week after the Lagos State House of Assembly rejected 17
of the 39 commissioner-nominees sent by Sanwo-Olu for screening.
The
Speaker also insisted he is trying to protect his party, the All Progressives
Congress (APC).
“So, I am
trying to protect my party and I would continue to do that but we are not going
to sacrifice service to our people in the name of technocrats, no.
“If
anybody is interested to know why we have taken such decision, he should
approach the House.
“The
House, as a body, restrains itself from exposing what was discovered during the
screening exercise and we would not be forced to spill it,” Obasa said.
