Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa is in custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), where he is being questioned over allegations of misappropriation of funds.
Our source disclosed that the speaker was invited by the Lagos zonal office of the EFCC on Thursday and he honoured the invitation and is still not left off the hook yet.
Travis Media gathered this is the second time in less than a week the EFCC is grilling the speaker over financial misappropriation.
He was also a guest to the EFCC last Friday where he was questioned on the same matter of misappropriation of funds.
A top source of Travis Media at the Lagos State House of Assembly said some lawmakers were giving out information to the EFCC to get him out of the way.
The source said the investigation by the EFCC would come to naught as the speaker was not accused of stealing money, but misappropriation of funds.
According to our source, members of the Assembly had perfected all documents relating to expenditures of the Assembly and that the speaker could not be found wanting.
EFCC’s spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, had earlier said that Obasa was not arrested but was invited to answer questions and that he was responding to the questions.
