DSS invasion: Lagos Assembly suspends plenary indefinitely

Amid the political tension in the Lagos State House of Assembly, the state Assembly has suspended plenary indefinitely.

This follows the invasion of the assembly by operatives of the State Security Services on Monday.

It would be recalled that tensions escalated in the assembly on Monday as security personnel, reportedly from the SSS, entered the assembly premises and locked the Deputy Speaker’s office before the start of the plenary session, leading to a standoff between lawmakers and security officers, with the lawmakers eventually regaining access to the assembly.

During the plenary session, the lawmakers addressed the security breach and passed a vote of confidence in the Speaker, Mojisola Meranda.

They also resolved to investigate the incident and report their findings to President Bola Tinubu and the SSS Director General Oluwatosin Ajayi.
