Lagos Speaker, Obasa’s Son Eyes Political Office

News Update

THE son of Lagos State House of Assembly Speaker Mudashiru Obasa, Ganiyu Obasa has officially announced his candidacy for the All Progressives Congress (APC) chairmanship ticket in Agege Local Government Area. The 32-year-old made the declaration on April 5, 2025, during a rally attended by APC ward executives.

Ganiyu expressed his commitment to continue his father’s legacy of development, with a focus on key areas like quality education, infrastructure improvements, and responsive governance.

His father, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, has been a dominant figure in Agege politics since 2003, representing Agege Constituency 1 in the Lagos State House of Assembly for six consecutive terms.

He served as Speaker from 2015 until his impeachment in January 2025, after which he was reinstated in March 2025.

There are rumors that Mudashiru Obasa plans to run for Lagos State Governor in 2027.

Meanwhile, the political crisis in the Lagos State House of Assembly remains unresolved, as Mudashiru Obasa continues his legal battle against former Speaker Mojisola Meranda and other lawmakers, despite an intervention from President Bola Tinubu.
