Mojisola Meranda, the Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, has resigned after just 50 days in charge.
This sudden move comes as a surprise, especially since members of the house passed a vote of confidence on her leadership just two weeks ago.
Meranda’s resignation is the latest development in the controversies surrounding the Lagos State parliament, which began with the impeachment of former Speaker Mudashiru Obasa.
It’s unclear what prompted Meranda’s decision, but her departure is likely to lead to further power struggles within the assembly.
