Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa on Monday reiterated his earlier statement that there was no crisis or whatsoever at the assembly.

Obasa made the statement at the plenary session where a vote of confidence was passed on him by the 35 lawmakers present at the session.

“There is no crisis in the Lagos House of Assembly. We have 30 something members sitting here at the plenary today. If there’s crisis, we won’t have these numbers sitting here.

“We don’t have crisis. The fact that one or two people sat somewhere and wrote rubbish doesn’t mean we have one.

“We had a sitting on Monday, Tuesday and parliamentary on Thursday and another sitting today. So where is the crisis? There is no crisis in this house and there won’t be crisis. We took decision in the interest of Lagos and Lagosians and if there’s need to take such decision again, we would,” he said.
