President Bola Tinubu is currently hosting members of the Lagos State House of Assembly at the State House, Abuja, in a bid to address the ongoing tensions within the legislative body.
The lawmakers, who arrived in two coaster buses on Wednesday afternoon, proceeded directly to the President’s office, where they awaited the scheduled meeting.
Among those present are the reinstated Speaker, Mudashiru Obasa, and his successor-turned-deputy, Mojisola Meranda.
While Meranda arrived with her colleagues shortly after 2 p.m., Obasa arrived separately around 2:50 p.m.

Obasa was recently removed as Speaker in a dramatic impeachment led by a majority of the Assembly members but was later reinstated following interventions from political leaders in Lagos, reportedly with President Tinubu playing a key role in resolving the conflict.
As of press time, the meeting is still ongoing.
