The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mojisola Meranda, has slammed rumors suggesting that she has resigned from her seat as speaker. Meranda’s Chief Press Secretary, Segun Ajiboye, made the statement this afternoon saying his boss is still the speaker.
According to Ajiboye, “I’m in the office. The speaker is in the office. I don’t know where that is coming from”.
He said the public should disregard a purported letter in circulation suggesting that the speaker, Meranda has resigned from her seat.
Meanwhile, in a circular dated February 17, 2025, allegedly released by Meranda had also been trending on social media space for two days, with the content claiming she had resigned.
However, checks on the letter circulating on social media showed it wasn’t signed by anyone despite madam Meranda name appended at the bottom.
The Lagos Assembly had been rocked with leadership crisis since the former Speaker Mudashiru was removed by majority of the lawmakers at the House.
