Otunba Yomi Adelowo, a senior member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has expressed confidence in the capabilities of Rt. Honourable Mojisola Lasbat Meranda, the newly-elected Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly. Adelowo highlighted Meranda’s experience, education, family background, and leadership skills as key factors in her readiness for the role.

Meranda, who was elected to the position in a recent assembly session, has been recognized for her contributions to public service and her commitment to legislative work. Adelowo emphasized that her background and qualifications make her well-suited to address the challenges facing Lagos State. The APC leader also noted that Meranda’s leadership style and competence would be instrumental in advancing the state’s agenda.

Meranda’s election marks a significant moment in Lagos State politics, as she becomes one of the few women to hold a high-ranking legislative position in the state. Her appointment follows a period of political transition and renewed focus on governance and development. The APC has been a dominant political force in Lagos, and Meranda’s leadership is seen as a continuation of the party’s influence in state affairs.

The political landscape in Lagos remains dynamic, with ongoing efforts to improve public services and address economic and social challenges. Meranda’s role as Speaker is expected to play a crucial part in shaping the state’s legislative priorities in the coming months.
